Good morning from Madarao.


The wet of yesterday turned into snow later on and this morning the resort is reporting about 5cm of fresh snow. It's not going to be peak season powder - somewhat wetter and heavier - but, hey, it's snow and always way better than rain.


This morning there is a lot of cloud and fog around but it's forecast to be clearer later on so we can expect clearing conditions this morning.


More snow still possible around Thursday.
