As forecast, it started snowing again last night. In order to maintain safety at all times, the Institute of Forestry and Nature Conservation (IFCN) has closed several roads, and these are: the forest road between Eira do Serrado and Pico do Areeiro and the road between Pico das Pedras and Achada Teixeira.
As a further safety measure, the Regional Directorate for Roads has closed the road between Poiso and Pico do Areeiro and the police authorities would like to remind everyone that they will not tolerate any rule breaking with regard to road closures.
Snow is expected to fall today and tomorrow, while temperatures should rise slightly on Saturday.
