Posted on Wednesday 5th March 2014 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here.


Wet snow falling this morning and quite mild. Better than wet rain for sure, and actually quite big 'flakes' as well just now, and more snow is on the way... hopefully of the more powdery kind.


Looking at the forecast, it's looking pretty good actually. Snow every day through into next week? Would be great. Make it happen! If it does happen, we will all be as pleased as people who are extremely pleased with the snow conditions.


I'll keep you updated.
