The snow reports say that snow is falling down to 1000m in the hills and mountains of Victoria.

Is there anywhere you can see what areas are above the 1000m mark with an online map or anything ?

I am just curious how far away that nasty cold white stuff is.

It is 2 weeks before we can move out of this cold old farm house an into our new insulated and draft free home

Have you tried in Places on here??

I am not sure whether you are able to get contours up though

HTH

Kev & D200Dug,

Contours are available on all ExplorOz mapping elements just click on Features and select Contours from the list - this will add the contours overlay onto what every base map you have loaded.

Try this site Dug.

Click on the hours out for the snow fall location. It might help.

Hi D200Dug,
I went for a drive to Mount Tassie yesterday and their was a sprinkling of snow. I reckon the Mount Erica Car Park or the Thompson Valley Road to Mt St Gwinear would have some around after today's downpours. The Victorian snow Report has St Gwinear at 5cm cover. Maybe a drive up McEvoy's might even be worth it. Also up past Licola to Tamboritha Saddle would surley give you a look at some white stuff.

Stay warm.

TJ...

We always took our kids up to Mt St Gwinear for an hour or so of snow and then on for a picnic at Thomson Dam. Job done.... snow trip covered for the year!

That was enough for me.

The beach... similar. Not snow... sand.
