Morning from Geto.
Another 5cm or so of snowfall and again it is a bit heavy and moisture-rich (!), which again is better than rain but we hope for more in early-mid January.
It is milder than it should be for the time of the year but we should be seeing temps drop, so perhaps the snow falling will get a bit lighter too...
