Loads of snow!
There haven't been many times I have been able to say that this season but here we are on 1st March and I'm able to report a significant amount of fresh snowfall. And a proper amount too - my friend was saying close to 50cm outside his place. Northerly winds have been blowing snow around and I've taken a few measurements and going to record 35cm as the number today.
Great stuff. And it's still snowing.
Once we get past today, clearer skies are forecast and not a whole lot of snow lined up either.
For now though, today should be GREAT!
