Hello. So this morning I have 40cm or so of snow to report to you. It was snowing pretty much for the day yesterday, though it is just cloudy this morning.
But guess what? Yes, snow is due later on and over the weekend. Mad. Official numbers now over 18m. Numbers like that actually put some people off. (Yes, hard to believe perhaps...)
There's a westerly wind but hopefully lifts will be moving as planned for the day. Limited visibility in places.

All normal courses open.
