Australia's Best Start To A Snow Season In Years
It's been a bumper start to Australia's snow season, against Bureau of
Meteorology (BoM) foretellings.
Mount Hotham has been hit by a fresh dumping. The storm began midday Tuesday
and intensified overnight, with a foot recorded in resort zones. Temperatures
plunged to around -5.6 C (21.9 F), creating ideal conditions for powder
retention.
As of of Wednesday morning (June 25), it's a frozen landscape of deep powder,
with more snow still falling.
Heavy snowfall hits Hotham.
Victoria's other alpine areas were also hammered-Falls Creek picked up 37 cm
(14.6 in) and Mount Buller logged over 20 cm (7.9 in) over the past 24 hours,
marking one of the strongest seasonal openings in years.
"We had a magical delivery that started yesterday afternoon, " Mt Buller
spokesperson Rhylla Morgan said. "It's nice and cold, and is set to stay that
way."
Resort crews worked fast to clear roads and prep lifts. The Great Alpine Road
is open, though all vehicles must carry diamond-pattern snow chains-a legal
requirement in alpine zones. Visibility is now good, winds are low, and lifts
are running.
This comes on the heels of a massive early-June system that delivered 70 cm
(27.5 in) to Falls Creek and 65 cm (25.6 in) to Hotham. Cold fronts have been
frequent this month, feeding what could be one of the best seasons in decades.
This season continues to stand in stark contrast to the BOM's "hot winter"
forecasts: "The BOM expects one of Australia's warmest winters on record with
mean anomalies of ~1.5°C above baseline."
