Answer 1:
Yes, during winter Southern Australia has extensive areas of snow cover (generally above 1000 meters) the snow cover in these areas may range from a few centimeters at modest levels below 1000 meters to several meters in depth high in the alpine areas. During cold outbreaks large percentages of the Australian states of Victoria and Tasmania may be covered in snow.
Probably not.
Snow cover may stay for 60 days over 2,200 km2 on mainland Australia and 1,200 km2 for Tasmania according to authorities. Snow cover may stay for 30 days over 7,938 km2 (based on 1,400 m altitude at 36 deg S) on mainland Australia. The only permanent snow Australia has is a few snowdrifts.
Switzerland has an area of 41,290 km2, of which 9,788 km2 is over 2000m altitude at 46 deg N. Switzerland has 1,230 km2 of permanent glaciers.
Answer 2:
Yes - but only during winter. This is due entirely to the fact that Australia is such a vast continent that, even though there is relatively little area that is high enough for snowfalls, it still covers a greater expanse than that found in Switzerland. During winter, significant areas of the high country in Victoria, the Australian Alps in New South Wales, and central Tasmania are covered in snow. These regions are well known for their snow resorts in winter.
However, it is important to note that Australia does not have permanent snow, unlike Switzerland.
