Posted on Wednesday 30th December 2015 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here.


Light snow falling early this morning here in Madarao though it is expected to be clearer during the day today. We might get some sunshine on us tomorrow (perhaps even today?) but snow clouds are due back over the area by tomorrow night. Hopefully it might be snowing as we wake up on the first day of 2016.


Beyond that some clearer skies and slightly warmer conditions are currently on the forecast for the first few days of the new year.


We must all concentrate out thoughts on hoping that it keeps on the colder side of things.


Have a good new year period wherever you are.
