New snow
18th December 2025
A thin cover of new snow lies above 800 metres. At lower levels there was heavy rain which turned to ice on some surfaces. Isolated accumulations of windslab are beginning to develop in wind sheltered locations. These are expected to become deeper and more widespread over the next 24 hours due to the onset of snow showers. The limited old snowpack is firm and icy with serious run out potential on steeper terrain.
