Lovely blue skies this morning and to add to that, we have 10-15cm of fresh snow on the ground as well. It's going to be a fine day.

A coldish start to the morning but tomorrow is forecast to be warmer and bring with it similar conditions, perhaps a bit more cloud than we are seeing now. Then after that Friday is a tough one to call --- rain lower down and snow higher up, or just later on? It's not clear but over the weekend we are due to get more fresh snow again.
