Snow started to fall yesterday in the resorts but today looks like being the day of the heaviest falls in the north and unfortunately a bit wet later in the south. We will add to this gallery as the day progresses and hopefully show images from not just in and around the resorts but also of snow reaching areas that don’t often see snow.
