Snow Forecast for Mountains Just Outside Sydney

Snow has been forecast for areas just west of Sydney, on the first day of Summer.

The New South Wales weather authorities are forecasting snow will fall as low as 1200m in NSW on Monday.

Here’s the forecast for Alpine Areas is NSW

Weather Situation

A trough and associated cold front will move through southern and western New South Wales today, before stalling over the state’s northeast on Sunday.
A second, more vigorous cold front is expected to affect most districts on Monday, bringing a burst of unseasonably cool weather to the southern inland. Following this, a weak ridge looks set to develop over the region during the middle part of next week.

Forecast for the rest of Saturday

Cloudy. Very high (90%) chance of showers in the south, high (70%) chance elsewhere. Snow possible above 1900 metres at night. The chance of a thunderstorm in the north this afternoon. Areas of raised dust this afternoon and evening. Winds west to northwesterly 25 to 35 km/h tending west to southwesterly in the late afternoon then becoming light in the late evening.

With snow forecast for the next 3 days on the alps you'd be excused for thinking tomorrow is the first day of winter, not summer! Stay safe if travelling or hiking in the high country by following the alpine forecast: https://t.co/towWuA0bV6 pic.twitter.com/jZF7q4LwGW
