Light snow arrives on Sunday and redevelops on Monday into Tuesday

There are two snow systems gearing up ready to cross the Australian Alps.

SNOW SYSTEM ONE

The first one arrives early on Sunday. A nice little system, nothing huge. A cold front passing through, with no prefrontal warm up (yay) and a nice little cold pool. Snow may lower to around 1400 metres delivering up to 5cm, before clearing overnight.

-> So, Sunday has a nice but little top up, snow for most alpine elevations.

Potential snow on Sunday is just a few centimetres

THE NEXT SYSTEM IS A BIT BIGGER

The next one looks better.

As it stands on Friday night, the next snow system begins on Monday afternoon/evening, delivers on Tuesday, and eases on Wednesday.

Generally we're likely to see 5 to 20 cm of snow. A few models like the higher part of the range, a few keep it a lot lower.

Early next week brings higher totals, possibly up to 20cm
