Good morning my friends.
Yes, more snow this morning. It's the third morning in a row.
Hakuba Happo-one is reporting 5cm of snow by the top of the Riesen lift.
Hakuba 47 are reporting 3-5cm on upper slopes.
And I have a few cm from down below, 2-4cm or so in places.
Limited visibility in places but that is likely to improve and there may be some sunshine appearing later on in the day today.
