Massive End-Of-Winter Snow Buries Australia’s Resorts

A blizzard has buried Australia’s ski fields under some of the deepest snow in years.

Resorts across the Aussies Alps logged equally impressive totals: Mount Buller in Victoria received 53 cm (21 in) in just two days. Hotham posted 77 cm (30 in), Thredbo 71 cm (28 in), Perisher 67 cm (26 in), Charlotte Pass 70 cm (28 in), Falls Creek 69 cm (27 in), and Buller 62 cm (24 in). Snow even reached lower elevations west of Sydney: "the most significant fall in years," said the locals.

The Antarctic blast delivered temperatures of -5C (23F) and winds strong enough to put chairlifts on hold. Once skies cleared, Perisher reported “perfect winter” conditions, with 87 freshly groomed runs and packed powder across the slopes.
