Mountainwatch | Video Snow Report

After a wild and wooly weekend the weather has settled over the past couple days with a combination of dry snow and pockets of windblown powder turning on good conditions across the Southern Lakes resorts. However the fine weather didn’t last long with another strong system due tonight delivering heavy snow falls tomorrow morning but snow levels may climb in the afternoon.

Nick Hyne reports from Treble Cone hanks to Visit Queenstown and Lake Wanaka tourism.
