After that snow of yesterday - with 5-10cm more reported being by the resort from the upper areas by mid afternoon - we are going to be back to clearer weather conditions today. Sunshine and milder weather is expected and it is a fine start. More of the same due tomorrow as well.
Hold on, there's more snow due by next weekend. Looks like we are on for a good end to March.
