Posted on Sunday 1st February 2015 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here.


Lots of lovely light snow this morning in Madarao. That's what we like to see!


Madarao is reporting a full 40-50cm of snow on the mountain this morning since yesterday. How does that sound?


There's certainly a big chunk of snow to move off my car, but I think I'll leave that until later and instead head out for some first tracks. Which should be absolutely marvellous today!


It's cold too and a moderate wind at times.


Light snow was still falling earlier but actually there's some blue sky now as well and it's just cloud/fine for the moment. May not last though as snow is forecast for today and into tomorrow.


I'm not sure why they say it but in the spirit of joining in the fun, it will probably be 'The Day' today. ;)
