Good morning from Madarao.


What about this then?! About 30cm of fresh snow!


I felt it was my duty to go out and explore first thing to confirm this myself before I reported.


I did it for you. ;)


With blue sky and sunshine it has been a lovely morning, with quite a few other people around thinking the same, too. Being a national holiday helps.


Forecasts all show predominantly sunny skies over the coming week so that might be it for snow. But we have done well.


If it doesn't warm up too much, conditions should be super fun right through until the end of the season.
