Morning from Madarao.


It's snowing again... started from early morning and actually coming down at quite a speed just now and there's 6cm on the ground now.


We're expecting clearer skies over the region at the weekend, so we'd like as much snow falling from the skies as possible today. Come on!


Hard to believe that come Sunday we have just three weeks left in the snow season here at Madarao. How can time go so quickly. When you're having so much fun, I suppose. It's not fair though! I want a longer winter season.


Poor visibility outside at the time of writing and rather chilly.
