A cold winter despite El Nino


The following shots were taken in the Australian Alps at the waning of the snow season.
Despite El Nino picking up, an event that causes drier periods in Australia generally, the snow falls weren't too bad.




These may be the last good falls for the next few years until the El Nino cycle is reversed giving rise to not just milder winters but also very hot and dry summers.
