Posted on Thursday 2nd January 2014 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here.


It's a good snowing morning greeting from Madarao Kogen.


It was a good overnight, with 30cm or so of fresh snow to report to you. Lots of shovelling going on by people wrapped up well as while it's not as cold as it can get here there's a wind blowing making it feel particularly cold.


The snowfall probably won't be here for long though, a clear up is expected. And maybe some sun tomorrow.


Conditions are very good. Hope you can get to enjoy them.
