Personaly i hope this is an indication of that the snow "border" has "tilted" upwards, so that this will be the first ever winter without snow in Norway..

This was a great thread!

I hope NZ has a nice hot summer, at least in the North to make up for the cold winter! At least it was wet snow that did not seem to be accumulating much or whatever did stick would not hang around long enough to require plowing.

I saw this video a while back, shows how much snow really fell in some places. Also amazing how a little bit of elevation can have a significant impact.
