Rutgers Global Snow Lab is a great source: http://climate.rutgers.edu/snowcover/

Thank you! That tells me that April 2016 had a record low level of snow cover in the northern hemisphere (http://climate.rutgers.edu/snowcover/table_rankings.php?ui_set=1); will check back in a day or two for the May figure.
