Posted on Monday 11th January 2021 This is an archived report. The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here.
Good morning from Hakuba and there's more snow to report.
This morning the new snowfall being reported by the ski areas is 15-20cm on upper areas.
Nice.
Many of the total snowfall numbers are now over 5m.
It's lovely quality snow too.
Light snow has been falling this morning but it has stopped (outside my window here anyway) and the forecast is for mostly just cloudy skies with a chance of occasional light snow. That is what is on the menu for tomorrow too.
As I write this it feels like it might be trying to clear in places and getting brighter.
For those looking for a higher chance of sunshine and blue skies, we should be seeing some (lots?) of that Wednesday perhaps through Friday.
