"Through the Wimmera and northern parts of the country, we could see falls of 10 to 15 millimetres build up over those three to four days."

"At the same time the forecast is for five millimetres of rainfall on Thursday and Friday, so those are the two days with best chances of getting snow. It will only be a few centimetres - 10 centimetes or less - of snow on highest peaks, and that's being optimistic."
