Yes Tuesday. But I fear for the amount of rain that will come before it, It looks heavy and before the cold air that is following.

I think it will finish the non snow making runs. The only places to ski will out of bounds.

The best thing that could happen would be for the moisture to slip south and for us to get nothing  (rain or snow)

How valuable is snowmaking, even if this happens there is still great fun to be had for beginners and intermediates. If your going to learn to ski for the first time this is when you should do it. Sunny days, small crowds, cheap tickets/accomadation.

Then again there are still a few systems to come through over the next of weeks, and history tells us that there is usually one that surprises us. :)

I think at this stage by the end of next weekend there will little if anything left.

This rain band that is going through at the moment is too warm. The moisture band coming through next weekend is not going to be any better.

The cold fronts are either not reaching us or are getting here after the rain.

 :( :( :(

If any surprises come I think they will be to late. :(

It just shows how you shouldn't jump to conclusions. After 8 cms over the last few days and now a chance of a little more snow next tuesday/wednesday the chances of good beginner/intermediate skiing during the school holidays are excellent. :)

Should start to snow tonight and then to lower levels tomorrow and the start to clear on Sunday.  Will probably get 5-10cm.
