Posted on Friday 27th December 2013 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here.


After yesterday the skies quite quickly clouding over, we got some rain last night I'm afraid.


But!


Happily that didn't last too long and it has changed into snow this morning with the resort saying that there's 10cm of fresh on the slopes. It's still snowing and poor visibility out there, I think fog is adding to the not-being-able-to-see thing going on this morning.


Unfortunately the tree runs that were open are closed today due to the rain not helping conditions. The Freeride Park is open though.


Hopefully the snow today will help and it should also be snowing tomorrow. Keeping cold too. Clearer conditions likely from Sunday before another cold snap due around January 1st.


Lots of snow today please!
