Hello from Madarao.
Just a bit of snow since yesterday and the ski area reports 5cm. I thought were were expecting more...
Cloudy scenes over here in Madarao, but there's some blue sky over on the Tangram side according to their webcam!
Light snow at times early this morning though not just as I write this.
Less wind due today.
