Independent snow and weather reporting from the Hakuba region of Nagano
New snowfall at base 5cm
Snowfall at base this season 369cm
Posted on Monday 10th March 2014 This is an archived report. The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here.
Resorts this morning reporting up to 10cm of fresh snowfall and outside my place I have up to 5cm. It is still snowing now.
Light winds early but stronger are forecast for later today, let's hope they don't mess with lifts.
Clearer conditions are expected tomorrow and maybe Wednesday. Right now there's the ominous sign of potential rain around Thursday as we hit a warmer spell of weather, but hopefully if that happens it won't last long and be followed again by snow.
In resort news, Hakuba Minekata has now closed for the season.
