Snow Forecast Summary - 5th March 2009

The snow currently falling should continue through most of Friday, with weather in most places clearing by Saturday afternoon for a great weekend on fresh snow. Light snow is possible in the north of the region early next week.

The impressive snow depths reported by the southern resorts should hold up well, however, so good skiing will be available almost everywhere.
