Dusting of snow for parts of the ACT, NSW, Tas and Victoria amid Antarctic blast​

1 day ago​

Up to 40 centimetres of snow has fallen in some parts of south-east Australia just days before the start of Spring.

Good for wine​

Cool-climate vignerons near Orange welcomed the conditions which left vineyards covered in snow.

Emily Swift, who owns a winery in Orange, said it was beautiful to wake up to snow everywhere.

"We love the snow on our vines because the snow has a lot of nutrients in it," Ms Swift said.

"The fact the snow melts slowly means those beautiful nutrients are soaked into the soil and the vines love it.

"It doesn't hurt the vines at all but it's more about the nutritional value going into the soil.

"It makes for a great start to the season."

The alpine region, including the higher parts of the ACT, has also been blanketed in snow, including well over half a metre of fresh falls across Thredbo and Perisher since the storm commenced on Wednesday.
