Been dry all day out east. Sun was even breaking through.

So not a good idea to go to drive Hanmer tomorrow ??

have guys driving to Kaikoura from Christchurch at 05.30 tomorrow will they be able to get through the pass do you think??

It’s snowing at the mt Fyffe gate in kaikoura but not settling yet- looks like it’s got potential to overnight though.

No snow ❄️ timaru i want snow ⛄️

I want snow..please 😁 I want to show our 2 /1.2yr old, that, will be awesome. Thank you ❄☃️❄

Saw that from Springfield. Driving in snow showers back to Sheffield.

No snow at Christchurch (Redwood) please let it snow ❄️❄️🌨️🌨️

Another 4months and all will be wishing it was raining or snowing be to 🥵

We were going to do this as well. Maybe next week 🤣

Oxford got a wee bit last night that settled but was too wet, maybe tonight might be a different story?

❄️❄️Snowy walks in Hanmer Springs NZs Alpine Spa Village today, with many schools closed in the Hurunui District.

🔎Snow is still falling and will lower again tonight to around 150m in parts of Canterbury. For many inland areas snow will linger until Tuesday night. We will see lulls and some fine breaks this afternoon.

⛅️Coastal areas - expect more frequent sunny spells at times, but a few bands move in tonight/overnight, with wintry showers and sleet risk.

➡️Enjoy the sun if youre lucky! Check into our town pages - they provide superior detail, intensity and accuracy across the region.
