Hello from Madarao.
10+cm of fresh snow out there this morning. (The ski area has 10cm on their social media and 20cm on their website, bit confusing). Perhaps we should go out there expecting 10-20cm on the runs. I must investigate. (The things I have to do...!)
It's a mostly cloudy morning but fairly bright and visibility is good. Pretty cold. Feels like we might get to see some sun. Should be a good morning.
More snow is due tomorrow with potentially bigger snow numbers coming around Friday night and Saturday morning.
