As we left for our Sunday brunch at the seaside it began to snow.
Angry looking storm clouds at sea, proved what the forecasters had predicted--there was a southerly storm brewing.
The white on the sand dunes is snow - proving snow to low levels was correct!
Deteriorating conditions on the way home.
And a poor view from the supermarket carpark, as we stocked up on frozen food - a good day to shop for frozen food no chance of it melting on the remaining way home.
Couldn't see across the valley as the snow and hail fell.
So we spent the afternoon indoors.
In front of the fire.
Day two dawned and all the snow had turned to ice - so we stayed home again. It's been sunny, but the white stuff is not melting very quickly. The steep icy hills make Dunedin particularly treacherous, the gritters grit but unlike the UK there's no salt in the grit so the roads remain icy.
