Current snow conditions

My friends and I will come to High Atlas for ski touring in two weeks. Can you give us some information about the current conditions? How much snow (centimeter) is there at the moment at Toubkal Hut? According to the weather forecast there should be some snow fall at the moment and the next days, is that right?
Thanks a lot for your answers.

Snow cover has been thin on the ground this season and especially for skiing - e.g the often favoured run from the Toubkal refuge down to Sidi Chamarouch has not been possible. As you say there is more snow forecast this week but this doesn't seem that it will do much more than cover some holes made by walkers!

Above the refuge there is certainly skiable terrain on N and NE facing slopes - but not as great as previous years.
