So it was a mix of sleet and rain yesterday in town, wet snow at times, but by evening things were holding off - when I was outside anyway.
This morning a few resorts round town are reporting a dusting of snow with Kagura resort saying they got up to 10cm on the upper slopes over there.
Here in town it didn't really get that cold last night, just hovering around the zero level and right now it remains about that. Cloudy skies above and nothing falling from them. We might see the sun out later.
The local forecast is for clear and sunny conditions tomorrow morning. We are still looking at a good chance of snow come Friday morning, maybe even tomorrow evening, and for Friday and Saturday to bring us back to mid-winter like conditions, including the wind.
