snowdude 44 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 It is snowing around the mountains I can see between the gaps in the clouds that it had been and still is snowing. Turned pretty cold here now more like early March than early April with an annoying very strong wind. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 It's raining here still but I was out before and it was actually quite cold. Wonder if we'll get anything overnight. Link to post Share on other sites

MagSeven 40 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Snowing here since early afternoon. It's been snowing since last night up north. Looks like windy snowy yuck weather tomorrow, but Sunday might be a decent day on the hill. Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted April 4, 2014 Author Share Posted April 4, 2014 My area is down for snow tomorrow night actually. It will certainly cold enough tomorrow to snow if anything falls from the sky here. As much as I like snow I need to mulch my rows I prepared on my fields nit easy to do if they are covered in snow. I guess I will find out tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Been raining all day in Sapporo although it's forecast to change to snow overnight....none yet tho Link to post Share on other sites
Mike Pow 52 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Very fine snow at MQ in Higashiyama at 8pm. Strongest wind we've had this season with it though. Ridiculous. Link to post Share on other sites
Mick Rich 78 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 The NHK weather forecast is predicting lots of snow on the sea of Japan (or whatever it's now called in Virginia) coast and upwards to Hokkaido, and you know that they're never wrong! Not that I would know because I wouldn't watch a tv that I should be but am not paying a licence fee for! On the subject of news, you haven't been playing with gas cannisters up in Sapporo have you TB? Link to post Share on other sites
sapporo 8 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Snow predicted to last through tomorrow at Otaru. Could be a good day on the slopes Sunday?! Link to post Share on other sites
Metabo Oyaji 71 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Scarily strong winds on the Ban-Etsu this evening. Supposed to snow lightly tonight and tomorrow; no snow in evidence yet in Aizu-Wakamatsu, though a veritable storm of of Haruka Ayase posters all over the place. Dust on crust tomorrow, perhaps? I'll take it! Link to post Share on other sites

Hokkaidough 4 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 How long does the season plan to go on until at Teine, Tubbs? Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 after this weekend Teine is only open on weekends and public holidays.......I guess they'll go as long as they have enough snow. We are going to go to Kokusai for the final day, end of April. Apparently they usually throw a jingiskan and beer party on the terrace. Sounds good to me, hopefully nice n sunny, slush, BBQ lamb and beer Update for Teine lifts, only paradise lift is running, summit express will be re-evaluated at 1pm.......bugger that. I'll just wait until tomorrow Link to post Share on other sites
