Waaah!

Yesterday I left for Jindy at 12:30 in a light drizzle. On my return 3 hours later the village was white and a few centimetres of fresh snow had already settled on the unploughed roads. Was this to be the BIG ONE - the big dump we had waited for all season?

This morning I was awoken by a constant stream of snowploughs. There was snow everywhere and with little to no wind, it had piled high.

The village is virtually closed with many staff unable to reach it this morning.

Below are a few snaps of conditions here in Thredbo.
