Forecast Surprise

Nothing much has been happening in Thredbo. There has been sunshine and rain and the slopes are a lush green. The temperatures have remained pleasantly low with the odd overnight drop below zero and the flies have been a minimal problem.

But this weekend looks to be bringing an interesting change. The winds are up and the cloud is starting roll back in.

Mist over High Noon during this week's rains

Crackenback with the last of the snow on the Bluff - this morning

The forecast I heard on the radio this morning is for up to 30cms of snow this weekend with snow down to 1200m.

I hope to have some photos up early next week and some time after that I plan to put together a report or two on my runaway trip to the Victorian slopes during last winter.

No grump report today - no time, although I have noticed that the KT weather page is putting out spurious data.

Telstra update: Although my phone lines are finally operating correctly I'm still waiting on my accounts to be corrected before any compensation is sought.
