Some snow showers occured on the Oberon Plateau above 1200M on this day and light settling occured in the morning. Then by afternoon and evening, snow showers recommenced on the Oberon Plateau, bringing more than 5cm of settling to the higher ground of Shooters Hill. Areas on the Oberon Plateau below 1200M still experienced settled snow (even Oberon township) although the depth was typically 2cm to 3cm. Blackheath had lovely snow showers (big flakes to 20 cent piece size) by about 9pm and it continued for about an hour with a very light settling. Then after 10pm, the rain started and washed the light settling away.
