Morning.


A mixed story to tell this Sunday morning.


Yesterday we had a mostly cloudy day with some rain falling in the evening but the good news is that this morning there's 10cm of fresh snowfall on the ground, hopefully a bit more than that higher up.


It isn't mad cold and the snow may not be top quality peak season powder, but it sure is better than rain.


It should be snowing today and tomorrow too, at least part of the time, so we can expect further cm and maybe colder conditions too.


Remember tomorrow is a national holiday and it will be the last nighta of the season.
