Where wintry precipitation’s almost done? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

snowdon

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'where wintry' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'precipitation's almost done?' is the wordplay.
'precipitation' becomes 'snow' (snow is a kind of precipitation).
'almost' means to remove the last letter (most of the word but not all of it).
'done' with its final letter taken off is 'don'.
'snow'+'don'='SNOWDON'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for snowdon that I've seen before include "that is looked up to in Wales" , "Highest mountain in Wales" , "Welsh mountain" , "High spot in Wales" , "Highest Welsh peak" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
