Posted at 10:24am on Wednesday 30th January 2013 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here.
Earlier this morning I could see the mountain and while there was a lot of cloud around it was fairly clear and good visibility. That soon changed and while we have no new snow until this morning it is coming down now. Snowing and poor visibility outside now with the report actually reporting 5cm.
It's currently -3 degrees here at base with a 3m/s wind. All of Madarao is open as normal.
Sun is due tomorrow and it's going to warm up on Friday and Saturday in particular. Going to get very mild over the weekend by the looks and we might even get some rain. Let's try not to think about that just yet though!
