Headed up to the Northern Tablelands last Wednesday (15th July) to intercept some snowfalls across the region. A very large cold pool brought scattered storm clouds across NSW. Some of these managed to produce snow on higher ground between Guyra and Glen Innes. The best falls were at Ben Lomond (where I was) where snow depth got to about 6cm or more by the next morning.
All photos for the two days are here:

In contrast to the snow and cold, this week has seen widespread temperatures in the mid 20s. Looks like it will get to 25 today after 24 the past two days.

Hi Jimmy – hope all goes well with these final days before the birth. Things will certainly change again for you
The focus of interesting weather finally shifted to the Southeast of the country with a series of cold fronts and lows passing through. Many locations have received between 50 and 100mm and some over 100mm. Adelaide, NW TAS, SW VIC and the higher ground of eastern VIC have done well. Snowfalls have fallen to low levels particularly in Tasmania where forecasts were indicating snow down to 400 metres elevation. Quite a bit of damage has also occurred due to strong winds.
Of course these sorts of patterns bring lovely sunny and warm days here and the rest of the week looks fine.
