Morning from Madarao.
The ski area isn't reporting any cm of snowfall since yesterday. I'm not sure I'd agree with that and I have measured 3cm. It's definitely colder, too.
Visibility looks fairly decent right now and it is clearer on the Tangram side. (That seems to happen a lot, doesn't it).
Maybe clearer skies tomorrow but we might get some more snow falling around Tuesday.
