Morning.


I think we were expecting more snow but it is snowing lightly this morning. The resort is reporting 0cm but there has been a dusting. Looks like the main event is due tomorrow and Thursday now as temperatures continue to drop today. It is definitely colder. So maybe some snow through today with more due over the next few days.


Reports of possibly strong winds, but for the moment that doesn't seem to be an issue
