Go Native 70 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Wet snow falling right down to village level currently! Hasn't really settled in the village yet but by morning it might. Currently the snow has settled above around 350m. It's pretty heavy precipitation too so there should be a fair bit settle up top. All very exciting!! Link to post Share on other sites
