Good news for you this morning.


27cm of fresh snowfall since my last report here at base and a good mountain-wider cover.


Ace.


After snow in the morning yesterday it cleared up for a while but got back to snowing by evening and it still is this morning.


Rather windy too with the snow being blown about. Mid-winter, yeah!


Somewhat calmer conditions are due tomorrow.


Curiously, the official snow depth numbers are unchanged - but that hardly matters!
