So light snow it was yesterday and didn't really translate into new snow in town, perhaps a slight covering on the slopes. Kagura reported up to 5cm.
Interesting morning. When I got up we had some clearer and sunny skies up there, it has clouded over somewhat since then and taking on a more overcast feel. But still, it's bright for the moment and all is calm.
The forecast insists that we will get some snow today though and possibly even some heavy snow conditions over the next few days. In fact, if the forecast is right we should be seeing a lot of snow right through the weekend and into next week. Should be great if that happens.
