Posted on Wednesday 2nd March 2016 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here.


A very fine day yesterday.


Snow wasn't falling as hard but there was a lot of fresh snow to play in.


Nice.


Snow clouds still nearby this morning, with light snow currently falling, but it is expected to clear up later in the day. And the day is starting cold so it should be another very good day to be out skiing and boarding.


From tomorrow, expect sunshine. And for temperatures to start rising, unfortunately and somewhat annoyingly. It looks like come the weekend it's going to be rather warm again. But we can't do anything about that can we... enjoy the now, and hope something happens to the forecasts.
