It does happen! The weather man is predicting snow down to 1000m across Tassie (Central Highlands) on Wednesday.

Happens almost every year. No surprises here. 
Nothing to see here.

Yeah I noticed that too. I did get a little snow walking up Arm River Track in early December, it was nice.
I'm tempted to go for a walk on Wednesday now.

I walked in a decent snow cover on Mt KW1 last January, and then again on the Eastern Arthurs in February. Snow in summer is indeed quite common.
