Posted on Thursday 29th January 2015 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.
A beautiful, cold, clear day today.
The morning started pretty dramatically, with a pure white Myoko peak and Jupiter just setting to its north side, then a spectacular yellow sunrise hitting the peak. The trees are covered in white, too - just a beautiful, Christmas card kind of look.
A lot colder, too, and the snow was light (another useful side to having to clear snow: you really get to know when it's nice and light, or wet and heavy).
The sun probably won't last long, though; there are some clouds to the north over the sea, and snow is on the forecast for the rest of the week.
