Blizzard conditions with winds in excess of 90km/h are expected to develop in the Snowy Mountains on Saturday, with the alpine peaks potentially experiencing gusts of about 125km/h.

Mick Logan, a meteorologist with the NSW Bureau of Meteorology, said it could be the most impressive widespread snowfall since 2000, with five to 10cm of snow expected down to altitudes of 700 metres in the southern and central ranges, and snow down to 900 metres expected in the northern tablelands.

"Storms create more claims in Australia than bushfires, floods, earthquakes. They are a huge problem and we have over 100 thunderstorms a year which create a massive amount of damage, so being ready and prepared are really important messages," said Anthony Justice, chief customer officer for NRMA Insurance.
