Does anyone know what the Mournes are like for snow at the moment?

Doesn't look like much.

The savoy webcam seems to have crashed, it has had the same image since last week. A friend was on bearnagh on Sunday and said that there was a lot of snow above hares gap. I doubt if it would have melted that much since then.

I noticed that about the savoy webcam today too, hope they get it sorted soo as it was handy.
I have seen a few photos this week showing a bit of snow, hope the snow that is about in various places makes it up there too. Hoping to get up to the mournes on Saturday or Sunday morning maybe, had a wee operation on tuesday and have to be careful with stitches.

I'd guess after most of the province got a dusting last night that the Mournes will be nice and snowy now.

From my viewpoint 10 miles away It looks like decent snow above 500 metres.
