Ahhh, fresh snow. Don't you just love it. It's a relief after rain too!
There is about 5cm around bases, with 15-20cm of snow being reported on upper areas, Kurobishi at Happo-one reporting 25cm. That sounds like a decent refresh - with more snow due through tomorrow, perhaps heavy at times. Fingers crossed we get a decent amount.
Right now it is just under -1C.
Sun is currently due on Wednesday, so that will be fun if we get our dumpage before then.
