    Snow will fall this week from Tuesday, December 23, for at least a couple of days in elevated parts of Tasmania, with a few flakes likely to persist into Christmas Day.

    That means a White Christmas for our southernmost state in the heart of the Australian summer.

    Tasmanian summer snowfalls often consist of just a few flakes at the state's highest points, such as the summit of Cradle Mountain (1545m) or Tasmania's highest peak Mt Ossa (1617m).

    Rare weather phenomenon may treat Aussies to first white Christmas in 19 years

    Some among us could be lucky enough to enjoy a white Christmas this year. The rare Australian phenomenon last occurred almost two decades ago.

    A senior meteorologist from the Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) told Yahoo News the "unusual" event is looking likely for some in Tasmania. Others across the country will grapple with extreme heat or storms.

    The bureau's Angus Hines said there was "definitely the potential" for some snow in southern and western areas of Tasmania on Christmas Eve and into Christmas morning if the forecast stays true.

    "The period where it looks most likely is beginning on Christmas Eve and then heading into the first half of the day on Christmas morning, and then gets increasingly unlikely after maybe 8 or 9 am," he told Yahoo News.
