Quick report this morning with info coming from a friend in Madarao (as I am in Tokyo).


Limited visibility early on at Madarao but better over on the Tangram side (where there's even a bit of clearing in the clouds). It's a cold start with cloud and light snow on the forecast for today. We might start tomorrow with some sun, though more snow due beyond that.
