We called the snow event. We didn't call Mt Buller leading the pack with 25cm. Falls Creek is sitting on 15cm and still falling, Hotham at 15cm, Thredbo at 13cm overnight. Snowguns are firing across the board and Opening Weekend is Saturday. The 2026 Australian season is starting in serious shape.

A significant winter storm has blanketed Mt Buller with 21cm of fresh snow, accompanied by extreme winds reaching 140km/h. While promising improved skiing conditions, the weather has also caused operational challenges and safety concerns.

Australia's major ski resorts have officially opened for the 2025 season following a winter storm that delivered fresh snow across the Australian Alps. Falls Creek, Mount Hotham, Perisher, Thredbo, and Mount Buller are all operating with beginner terrain available, whilst forecasts predict over 50 centimetres of additional snow throughout the opening weekend, promising excellent conditions for skiers and riders.

The Bureau of Meteorology predicts one of Australia's warmest winters on record, potentially impacting the upcoming ski season. With temperatures expected to be 1.5°C above average, ski resorts may face challenges in maintaining snow cover.
