Visibility Limited to poor


Posted on Sunday 9th February 2020 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here.


A very good morning from Madarao.


Rather limited visibility out there.


The great news is that there is also another fine thick layer of snow out there too. The resort is - rather conservatively, I feel - reporting 30cm. I am measuring more than that, I imagine wind has been a factor blowing the snow around.


Early reports of some possible delays with some lifts opening.


Official snow depths maybe aren't the most exciting of statistics but it is still good to see it rising above 2m this morning at Madarao; Tangram always reports a lower number and they are at 130cm.
