5.2C here at the moment few breif spits before and a hint of sleet.
If any snow does accumulate to sea level tonight to be safe I am going to say about 5-8cm so here is hoping.
This Thursday is looking good for snow even some heavy falls especially south canterbury check latest MSLP maps .
But we will get through tonight first I think since thats a wee way out yet.
Cheers
Jason.

Finally we get some moisture falling from the sky, but its too warm to snow. Went up to the highest suburbs before. Sleet, then snow falling right at the top.
Particularly easterly here now too

There is no such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothes.
