Yep the sleeping Giant has woken.

Just hope this keeps up for most of the day.

Lower slopes that were green now becoming white.

Snow settling on the top of roofs.

Everybody coming off the mountain is covered in white.

Very poor vis at the top I'm told.

Snow plow in village starting, I think just to keep the roads clear.

Let the videos play through as I'm putting them in them in order so we can see it accumulate, you can skip to the next vid my clicking on the right arrow or select any vid from the button next to play.

No need to be coming off the hill to be covered in white, just a walk through the village will do it.

I can't upload the videos (http://snocam.com.au/snow_conditions.html) before I need to shoot a new one.

Check the size of those flakes!

Snowing still, good coverage now and white in the village.

Take care those traveling into Thredbo tonight.

Had a look at DHG and over the top to see how the road was, lots of snow, chains required.
