Heavy snow expected for Christchurch

People heading on flights to Christchurch in order to enjoy winter sports this weekend could be pleased to hear that heavy snowfall is predicted.

As much as 20 cm of snow has been predicted to fall on Canterbury between August 14th and 17th 2011, according to New Zealand's Blue Skies forecasters.

"Accumulations could easily exceed 50cm over three days above 200m," the service predicted, stating that it could be similar to levels which were recorded a couple of weeks ago.
