Snow through the day yesterday again and another fab 40cm and just over 50cm reported by the ski area.
And this morning we have blue sky with cloud and expect some fine weather.

All lifts are go.
Wind and possibly blizzard like conditions tomorrow (and colder too). Looks like some interesting weather is lined up for the coming days.
Be prepared!
