They're already skiing in Chile's Tres Valles.

Winter's coming - with a blast of Antarctic air expected on Thursday.

Is it May, or March?

It's snowing hard again in the Alps. More is in the forecast for May 1.

There could be another wintry spell next week.

It should stay cold for most of next week, too.

It'll be warm in the west, and a little cooler in the east. There's the chance of snow at the weekend too.

And now the sun's come out, too...

Lucky are those who were out first thing this morning.

Spring has had a firm grip on conditions this week, but the forecast is for weekend snow - at altitude, at least.
