Posted on Monday 27th February 2017 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.
Not a lot of snow through the day yesterday.
It was pretty nice with some sun out there in the hills; the snow that started to fall later looked like it might just amount to something. But in the end we only got about 5cm of fresh. Could really use more in the natural world to cover over that big layer of wet stuff below (knowing that does bring some potential issues as fresh snow accumulates on that old wet, potentially hardening stuff).
It's trying to be sunny at the moment. The streets are pretty wet and nasty, but the temperature at base level is still in the minus numbers.
