Interpreting today’s forecasts
The 7-day snow forecast looking primo for a classic Canterbury SE dump Sun-Tue. But… forecasts have been highly variable for that far out for the last few days. We have the intriguing prospect of a Low in the Tasman Sea brushing shoulders with a High south of Tasmania. How these contrary systems are forecast to interact has changed substantially over the last couple of days. We can expect the forecasts to change again.
A good site for synoptic overview: MountainWatch.com
SnowForecast.com as at Tue pm showing SE snow for Craigieburn on Sun.
As at Tue pm, strong southerly winds and a spot of precipitation Sun-Tue on MetVUW. Not holding my breath just yet, but if it pans out, that’s a nice top-up for eastern fields.
