Hakuba Now: Sunday 16th March 2025

Independent snow and weather reporting from the Hakuba region of Nagano


New snowfall at base 5cm
Snowfall at base this season 758cm

Posted on Sunday 16th March 2025 This is an archived report. The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here.


We have some fresh snow this morning. I just cleared almost 5cm from the top of my car. It might not be particularly cold and the snow quality might not be peak season goodness, but it is always lovely to see fresh snow, of course. And it will give the slopes some added fun.


Seems like Hakuba 47 is going to re-open its Tree Riding Zone area.


We have a southerly wind today but hopefully it won't be too bothersome.


More snow is due today and tomorrow and I'm rather excited to see how much we might get. Snow clouds might be sticking around until around Wednesday.


Let it be snow!
