We have had a mostly kind of cloudy morning (with some bright spells), and it is currently just over 0C in the village.
We can expect more of the same cloudy conditions this afternoon and perhaps some more sun tomorrow.
I can see temps creeping upwards again early in the first part of next week (grrrrrr), though before then there's still that snow forecast around Saturday night.
Night skiing is planned for both Saturday and Sunday, as Monday is a national holiday.
