Good morning.


Some fresh snow this morning.


There is still some cloud hanging around but the skies are forecast to clear up during the day and the sun should make an appearance. And it's due to stay with us and be the major feature of the weather until Thursday. While today is going to keep fairly mild, from tomorrow the temps are going to start rising too. So it's probably going to feel like full on spring weather this week.


Less than 3 weeks left in the season here at Madarao - let's make the most of it.
