Independent snow and weather reporting from the Hakuba region of Nagano


New snowfall at base 8cm
Snowfall at base this season 675cm

Posted on Thursday 13th February 2025 This is an archived report. The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here.


Good morning from Hakuba.


Sorry I am a bit late today, I intended to be earlier but... life.


Strong winds and unfriendly weather are affecting a lot of lifts this morning. Ski/snowboards options are limited for those wishing to brave the conditions.


I imagine many are opting for an onsen or alternative things to do. It's one of those days.


This particular snowfall is probably not going to last beyond today and hopefully tomorrow will be less windy too.


On Saturday we might get some clearer skies though we will be getting more snow again early next week.
