Good morning from Naeba everybody.


For today we are reporting 50 cm of new snow however that is 20 cm for the 11th of February and 30 cm for today 12th February.


Today looks like it is going to be pretty special. With plenty of snow overnight and heavy snow falling even now conditions are fresh and powdery everywhere!


Looking on we are expecting this current snowstorm to carry on until Wednesday with clear weather on Thursday. After we have rain in the forecast, however, this is still a way off so let's hope the forecast changes before we get there.


Springy!
