PdG on Weds am. Going to be a struggle to ski into town. That forecast would certainly help though if it comes to fruition!

Could well be one last hurrah but how many times have we seen forecasts like these come and go, well for us down Sarf at least?

Still getting snow in the PNW. Should be below freezing temps and light snow flurries tonight and on Saturday. Lifts still spinning, albeit half as many for half as long. Watching the snow come down at Mt. Bachelor on the snow cams for a nice refresh for Friday.

Storm in progress in Oregon. Could be some challenging conditions with high winds and heavy wet snow. Good for the base 
...WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 9 PM THIS
EVENING TO 11 AM PDT SATURDAY ABOVE 5000 FEET...
* WHAT...Wet snow expected above 5000 feet. Total snow
accumulations of 4 to 8 inches. Westerly wind gusting 35 to 45
mph across exposed ridges and mountain passes will lead to
blowing and drifting snow, at times, as well as greatly reduced
visibilities.

Hard to believe this late in the season but there's been a persistent pattern of cold air flowing down from the Gulf of AK driving unseasonably cool temps and moisture into the Cascades. Another storm on the way for Tuesday. Will be a bit warmer. FL will be right around 5,000-6,000 feet. Not a big storm, but could see around 5" - 7" of snow Thursday into Friday morning. Will be heavy, wet and sticky. But, it's May, so we'll take what we can get!

Thanks @munich_irish, that is interesting. Hot and dry pretty much everywhere except northern Scandinavia.
It is a bit ominous that they think the La Nina effect will continue through the autumn, might mean the Alps won't get a good snow base.

@j b, all these type of longer term outlooks are pretty general, not sure you can predict autumn snowfall from this. An ongoing LaNina event will tend to influence the weather in certain ways (eg wet in parts of Australia) but it is a balance of probilities rather than a forecast.

The Cairngorms had some snow last week I think. Meanwhile it’s still very dry here in North Yorkshire. In fact it’s been very dry on the east side of the Pennines since November 2020. The peat is as dry on the Moors as I’ve ever known. The worry is that once this pattern resets and we lose the block, it wont not stop raining here for months.

@Peter S, So on average, its an average summer's day!
Glad I no longer have to commute on the Tube though.

Met O output now showing frost tonight and light snow on Ben Nevis on Saturday and Sunday, so not blisteringly hot everywhere in the UK

Given the rocketing price of energy this autumn it’s probably a nailed on certainty that it will be a cold winter !
