I can help with a quick check, but I don’t currently have access to live weather tools in this turn. Here’s a practical approach you can use right now to see if it will snow this weekend:

  • Check a trusted weather app or site for your location:
    • Look for the “Snow” or “Winter” secondary forecast, which often shows probability of snow and potential accumulation.
    • Check extended forecasts (3–7 days) and note any precipitation type indicators (snow vs rain) and freezing temperatures that support snow formation.
  • Pay attention to:
    • Temperature trends: overnight or early morning subfreezing temps increase snow chances.
    • Precipitation onset timing: snow is more likely when precipitation begins during colder hours.
    • Wind and elevation effects: higher elevations or exposed areas may see snow even if valley areas don’t.
  • If you’re near mountains or high-altitude areas:
    • Snow is more likely at elevations above around 1,500–2,000 meters depending on current season and humidity. Look for alpine-specific forecasts.
  • Quick decision rule:
    • If the forecast shows subfreezing temperatures with precipitation in the next 24–48 hours, plan for possible snow, especially in higher terrain.
    • If precipitation is shown as rain at all elevations, snow accumulation is unlikely unless temperatures drop further.

If you’d like, tell me your city or location and the weekend dates, and I can guide you on what to look for in a forecast or help interpret any weather briefing you find.
