Second snowfall hits in time for Jumpers and Jazz
PARTS of the Sunshine State transformed into a white winter wonderland as snow fell for the second time this week.
This time the snowflakes landed as far afield as parts of Killarney and up to Carr's Lookout.
It was a special day for the Carr family who were smitten to see the snow blow over their grandfather's lookout for the first time in 27 years.
"We were at work and decided to shut the gates and drive up to see the snow," grandson Luke Carr said.
The family built miniature snowmen and threw snowballs at each other.
It had been the first time some of them had seen snow.
The grandchildren work at the family owned business Carramar Timbers in Killarney.
"It's made our Friday a whole lot better," Mr Carr said.
"It's just awesome."
Their grandfather Reginald George Carr built the road and had the lookout named after him.
And the snow couldn't fall at a more perfect time for the region with Jumpers and Jazz officially underway.
Interim general manager of Destination Southern Downs Tracy Vellacott was happy to see the snow chasers stop by in Warwick and check out the tree jumpers.
"I rubbed my hands together with glee and thought this is so good for the Southern Downs region," she said.
"It is perfect timing, despite it being very cold; this is what we pitch to our visitors.
"It's cold enough to put jumpers on trees.
"I agree whilst people are coming to chase the snow, potentially while they are here we have an opportunity to educate them about this wonderful quirky festival that happens in Warwick."
Meanwhile, snowfall has been captured on CCTV overnight in Toowoomba.
