Mt Boyce AWS - A good way to check for snow in the upper Blue Mountains during a cold outbreak. This site typically updates about 15 minutes after each hour but may update more regularly at times. Check the temperature column and make sure it is two degrees celsius or below as rain usually turns to snow at around this temperature. Next, go to the "Rain Since 9am" column and check if it is raining or has rained since the temperature has been 2 degrees or less. Remember, even though you can see flakes falling at above zero degrees, settled snow usually occurs at around 0.5C or below. Note, don't be fooled during a good snow/cold outbreak when the AWS rain gauge can freeze over and give no precipitation reading.

Katoomba Council AWS - This site updates every minute or so. Please note, this unofficial weather station is situated at the Katoomba Council building and it usually records overly hot temperatures in full sun conditions. However, it is handy for wind and rain observations and also night-time readings. Its also very useful during winter cold snaps when cloud and wind allow its temperature readings to be more accurate.
