Back to Winter?

12th March 2026

Mild conditions with rain and sleet overnight affected the area. A return to colder conditions through the afternoon saw the freezing level lower to around 800 metres. It will remain cold overnight and through Friday with new snow and generally South-Westerly winds. Unstable windslab will form in wind sheltered locations with potential for fragile cornices in similar areas.

With a return to colder conditions the older snow will re-freeze becoming firm and icy in places. Uncontrolled slips and falls could have serious outcomes.

See report for more details.

Limited photo opportunities due to poor visibility.
