Arthur, Snake Valley is about 120k west of Melbourne, or about 38k west of Ballarat.
Up in the hills!

Cool photo Ken. That just insane weather. Good to have a bit of h2o fall from the sky though. Much welcome relief for the agricultural community.

maybe not jase, most orchardists would be hit hard by sub zero temps at this time of year ,hopefully its a chilly but not fatal blast of cold for
these growers .
