Recent good snowfalls across Australian resorts are about to be freshened up by another snow-producing cold front, right in time for the weekend. On Thursday, a cold front will makes its way eastward across Tasmania, Victoria and New South Wales. The freezing level looks to drop to around 1000 metres later in the day around the Alps of NSW and VIC and about 1500m in TAS, leaving 10-20 centimetres of fresh snow across the ski fields in its wake. As is common with the fronts, strong winds will accompany the snowfalls, making for low visibility and blizzard-like conditions higher up the mountains. Once the front moves off towards the Tasman Sea, winds will ease slightly as they tend westerly, however the there is a good chance Friday will accumulate up to 10cm of snow in the Alpine region of NSW and VIC, just in time for some weekend fun. Lighter snow should fall as low as about 900 metres in NSW, VIC and TAS. Over the weekend, VIC, NSW and TAS resorts are expected to be under partly cloudy skies, with light flurries possible on the peaks in VIC and NSW. Maximum temperatures around the green runs will hover in the 0-3 degree range, but for those chasing black run thrills towards the peak, make sure you layer up well - the wind chill will catch you out like a mogul field around a blind corner. Rest up after the weekend, as there is another front on its way. Further snowfalls are a good chance mid-next week, adding to the ever increasing base across all Australian ski fields.
