Posted on Thursday 21st February 2019 This is an archived report. The latest Geto Kogen Now report can be found here.
Not sure I was expecting this, but 15cm of fresh snow on the ground this morning. We got some light rain during the day from mid-morning but we can perhaps forgive that with some snow to see this morning. As you might expect with the milder temperatures, it isn't top notch mid winter powder... it's a bit heavy, but it's definitely better than rain.
It is snowing now so it will be interesting to see how the day goes.
Fine weather is currently forecast for tomorrow.
