We didn't escape the wet yesterday in the end and the damage that brings but lets try to put that behind us (he types grumpily) and bring the better news... 10cm of new snow this morning. Yes, it turned into snow overnight and there's a fresh layer out there now. Better conditions but 10cm isn't massive and so we want more, more, more.
The clouds have seen fit to disperse though for now and I can see some blue sky as well as the remaining cloud and for now snowfall has stopped.
Snow still on the forecast for most days this week though so perhaps it's just very changeable today.
The tree courses are closed today due to conditions left by yesterday.
