The heavy storm clouds have left Chile, but not before unloading flooding rain and burying mountain snow.

The storm left one person dead and 231 people injured, the emol.com website said in translation on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, a full meter of new snow was measured by one ski operator near Santiago.

Lifts were open as of Wednesday at Ski Portillo, although the highway linking the slopes to cities in Chile and Argentina was closed, the resort website said.

Snowfall since Monday was put at 39.4 inches, or 100 cm. The storm lifted seasonal snowfall to 49.6 inches, or 126 cm, according to the website.
