Posted on Saturday 17th January 2015 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here.
Snow haul of 10-15cm on the slopes apparently this morning here in Madarao.
A little earlier it was just light snow falling and even a bit of sunlight but it's snowing more heavily just now as I write this report. Snow forecast for the day but less so for tomorrow when we might see some clearing of clouds if we're lucky. After all, if it's not snowing it might as well be nice and bright and sunny, I say.
As I have mentioned before, it's the Powder Wave Session today from 10:30am over at Powder Wave.
It's Saturday, so there's nighta tonight of course.
