Posted on Friday 25th January 2019 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here.


There is lots of cloud around this morning with a bit of sun trying to peek through them in places and hints of blue sky, after some light snow falling a bit earlier on.


Might we perhaps enjoy a temporary clearing in the skies this morning?


It should last long though because we are still on for some heavy snow sometime tomorrow and possibly into Sunday.


Pretty quiet this morning but it should be a great morning for anyone here to enjoy it. That 'threat' of heavy snow over the weekend that might well put some people off coming (obviously people who are much less gnarly than we are)...
