Posted at 7:38am on Saturday 9th February 2013 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here.
Today is the first day of the long weekend here and what a great start it is too.
Snow started yesterday evening after a generally fine day, and by late night there was already up to 20cm of fresh built up. This morning I'd put the number at 30cm and the resort itself if putting the number at 30-40cm.
What's more, while there's still a lot of cloud up there, I can also see some breaks in it and a bit of blue sky. The sun is shining down from time to time. Is it going to clear up? Good chance I'd day.
Clear up or not, there's going to be some great conditions out there to enjoy.
