After the rain yesterday, it is snowing this morning. It's a bit on the wet side, but it's snow!
Slightly under 5cm so far, but it is still snowing and due to snow through today and tomorrow, and perhaps as long as into Wednesday morning. Let's see.
Currently it is around 0C in town and it shouldn't be getting much warmer than that during the day; tomorrow will be colder.

Hope to bring some more good snow news tomorrow morning!
