Well here in Australia, we have been hanging out for snow....and we finally got it :D yay!

"The long awaited snowfalls have finally arrived and hopes are buoying amongst holidaymakers and snow lovers. So far Perisher Blue has received 15cm of fresh snow, blanketing the runs and leaving the resort looking wintry and white!"


-Hotham are reporting 25cm
-Thredbo are reporting 20cm
-Perisher Blue are reporting 15cm

It started snowing about 3pm yesterday and is still snowing this morning :D

Here in this forcast hes predicting another big system coming through next monday, with a potential of a bigger dump and also on the 8th and 9th hes saying between 20-40cm! Snowatch - Video Forecast

and this is the forcast for next week Snowatch 2008 - 8-14 Day Forecast (when im down there! yay!) so its looking as though winter has finally come upon us here in Australia :D

hopefully by the weekend there will be more terrain and runs open :D

I just got back from an Aussie Alpine tour, rode Falls Creek, Buller and Thredbo... spent a few days on each mountain, there's snow but we still need a bit more cover, my new board got a lil too friendly wit a few rocks... NZ looks like they've got the goods this winter..
