Good morning everyone.
12cm of fresh snowfall to report this morning. The wind was pretty strong last night but we have been able to measure that much new snow on the ground.
It is colder once again which is good to report after the relatively mild day yesterday and snow is falling. Looks like we can expect regular snowfall in the coming week - the biggest potential for heavy snow on Tuesday night.
