Earlier this week I would say winter had arrived. Monday, a run in the snow. But, within 6 days, the snow line had retreated way up high as some warmer weather, by winter standards, melted much it.

This photo of snow on the East/West Fire Trail on Monday at a height of 800 metres above sea level.
I also found some snow on my Saturday run but the snow line was now at around 1000 metres.

This photo on the higher parts of Hunter track on Mt Wellington near the Pinnacle Road. Not much remains.

Mt Wellington with snow today at 1200 metres above sea level. Photo taken on my run up Goat Hill, a local steep hill. No snow here, it's only 660 metres above sea level but it can get a light fall in the right conditions. Hopefully winter has not left us just yet.
