ON THE GROUND REPORT
Jul 10 2025 06:55 AM: It is snowing and a powder day ahead with 10-15cms overnight, more at higher elevations and snowfalls will continue throughout the morning and we should see another 10-15cms before it eases this afternoon. It is currently -2 at the base in Perisher and -3.4 up the top , the weather station has the wind at 9-20ks, the forecast for for NW winds up high at 35-50km/hr........................... Yesterday's wind-hold caused long waits at the open lifts but it is nowhere near as strong as yesterday and hopefully the scheduled 34 lifts, including Blue Cow, will open today. Check the resort site after 8am for lifts status. ............................The snow is high quality, dryer at higher elevations with plenty of powder turns to be had today, Centre Valley, the Ridge area and Guthega the picks. The groomed runs have a layer of fresh snow on a firm base but visibility is variable, poor in open areas, so a day to stick to the treelined runs. Take care ion the drive and give yourself plenty of time as there is snow and ice on the road and chains are required from Sawpit Creek on Kosci Rd and if you're using the Ski Tube, chain are required from Penderlea. Enjoy the fresh snow and have a great day. - Reggae
