There's been snow in northern and southern hemispheres over the past 48 hours including significant July snowfalls above 2500m in North America and in the Alps.
In the USA snow has been falling in the northwest of the country, with Jackson Hole posting pictures of sunflowers under snow there.
In the Alps the Kitzsteinhorn glacier has reported 30cm of fresh snow in the past 24 hours in Austria at 3000m.
In the southern hemisphere there have been big snow accumulations in the Andes of South America and significant snowfall in New Zealand both of which had had a dry warm month after heavy snow a month ago. The snowfall is ongoing in both areas with around 20cm reported in New Zealand so far and as much again expected in the next day or two.
Australia also remains snowy although here temperatures have been low and the snow falling for several weeks.
