Hobart residents woke this morning to snow on Mount Wellington.
A strong cold front which passed over the city in Tasmania’s south last night left the light covering of snow.
The temperature on the mountain is sitting at -3 degrees Celsius this morning.
The bureau’s Tim Bolden says there should be enough snow to play in for the rest of the day.
“It looks from looking out the window like people could go up and have a play in the snow,” he said.
“Something a little more traditional for the Northern Hemisphere than for here but, yes, building a snowman the day after Boxing Day I think would be an interesting way to spend the day.
“There’s still some more showers expected today and they will be falling as snow about the mountain.
“But other than that the day will actually be mostly sunny and it’s just a case of each cloud really has the potential to bring a shower, that snow line will gradually lift during the course of the day.”

Tasmania is now in Western Europe too?
They want to secede to a country that knows how to play cricket.
James Hansen’s imagination has fit a lot into Western Europe. The seams showing?
But Antarctica and Australia are just itsy-bitsy spots on the globe! And that’s weather not climate.
In all seriousness, I never dreamed it could snow in Australia during the summertime.
