"Confidence is strongest from Sunday afternoon, May 3, through Wednesday night, May 6, while late-week and early-next-week storms carry much larger spread, especially from the Chilean volcanoes into Patagonia."
"Tuesday into Wednesday is the best-defined early-week wave, focused on Las Leñas with lighter accumulations into the central Andes and Chilean volcanoes."
"Snow levels during the snowfall run mainly near 1,600-2,800 meters from the volcanoes northward, making lower elevations marginal and favoring mid and upper mountain terrain."
Early-week snow in South America is expected to deliver 5-15 cm of accumulation, particularly at Cerro Castor and Las Leñas. Confidence is highest from May 3 to May 6, while late-week storms show greater variability. Snow levels are projected to be low, with temperatures ranging from -5 C to 1 C. The best snowfall is anticipated at Las Leñas, with varying intensity. Wind conditions may impact snow quality, and localized southern-zone snow potential exists for the weekend.
