Screenshot from the webcam at Masella taken at 12pm today.

We woke up to blue skies and sunny weather, but with a bitterly cold, howling wind. It made the ridge opposite the house look like a squirming, moving object, as the wind blew through the trees. We considered going for a walk, but couldn’t face the cold. I am still amazed that it went from summer to winter in one night.

The ski resort at Masella has had half a meter of snow (see screenshot of the webcam), and we are going to buy our season pass next week.
