Let it snow! Let it snow!

Light snow fell across Canberra yesterday as a blast of cold weather from the Antarctic produced snowfall across the east coast. While the tall Brindabellas are often dusted in the white stuff and the skiiing resorts are just two hours from Canberra, snow in urban Canberra are much more rare. The surprise snowfall occured even at or near sea level in Victoria and Tasmania - the first time in almost 20 years. A pity that I missed out the snowfall, stuck to the bed with a flu as I was. Still all is not lost. The weather forecast for the week is cold, maybe even colder. Can another snowfall be far away? Let it snow! Let it snow!
