It's snowing here, but it's not sticking, it did earlier, but it melted, might stick later on as the day gets colder.... :D

It is sprinkling with light snow here, and still quite cold, so if it gets heavier, then it will settle.

View attachment 10312


And as you can see i have been laying new conduit to the dish but can not put the new cables through due to the snow

I also can not get my car or van off the drive as its so steep and we are on the side of a mountain

It's been snowing for most of today, but the ground is wet so it's not really sticking...
