Bill wanted you to see what a Mt Everest weather report looks like. Here is the most recent one:
Everest North
Daily forecast will be delivered to you generally between 5 am to 10 am Nepal time each day.
Basics
Snow forecast is for the 20,000 foot level (6060 meters) and snowfall amounts above this level would generally be slightly lower.
Confidence ratings on the forecast are 5 being the highest level and 0 lowest levels.
Water equivalent will be listed as w/e
Nighttime temperatures during this period at the summit levels will be close to -17 F (-27 C)
Short term weather Friday May 6 to Monday May 9
Winds: Winds as we have discussed winds will increase on May 7 with summit winds up to 60 mph (96 km/hr) and continuing on that level for May 8. Perhaps a slight reduction May 9. Although the jet stream is not over the region it is just north of the area so we are getting these strong winds at times. Furthermore there is not an organized weather system associated with the increase in winds just an upper low to our north.
May 6
Summit=30 to 40 mph (48 to 64 km/hr) from west to northwest
26,000 feet (7878 meters)=20 to 30 mph (32 to 48 km/hr) from west to northwest
24,000 feet (7272 meters)= 20 to 30 mph (32 to 48 km/hr) from west to northwest
21,000 feet (6363 meters) )= 20 mph (32 km/hr) from west to northwest
Medium confidence in the wind forecast I gave this a 3.5

21,000 feet (6363 meters) )= 20 to 30 mph (32 to 48 km/hr) from west to northwest
Medium confidence in the wind forecast I gave this a 3.5

May 6 to May 9
0 to 0.30 in w/e (up 7.6 mm) to or in snow 0 to 3 inches of snow (0 to 7.5 cm)
Low to medium confidence of 3.0
Medium term weather Tuesday May 10 to Friday May 13

Extended Outlook Saturday May 14 to Monday May 16- brief discussion
Models indicate jet is not in the region with best estimate of winds in the 30 to 40 mph range (48 to 64 km/hr) or perhaps lower. Perhaps we start to see an increase in winds by May 18 hard to tell. Finally too far in the extended to discuss snowfal
