Hello and good morning from a snowy Madarao. Not sure I was expecting fresh snow on the ground this morning with the blustery and stormy kind of weather we were getting overnight. Noisy rain and wind.


So it is very nice to see 4cm of snow on the ground. Limited visibility still.


Tomorrow clearer skies are forecast again but beyond there is actually more snow. Winter is still hanging on and providing an 'omoshiroi' end to the season.


4 more days to go including today.
