Independent snow and weather reporting from the Hakuba region of Nagano
New snowfall at base 4cm
Snowfall at base this season 724cm
Posted on Saturday 22nd February 2025 This is an archived report. The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here.
Back to the snow again this morning with a few cm building up early on already and snow due through today and perhaps less so tomorrow... and then some sun from Tuesday.
Visibility this morning is generally limited on the mountains but wind does not seem to be an issue.
I notice the Grat quad and Kurobishi Number 3 lifts are going to be closed for the day at Happo-one. (Disclaimer: that is what it says on the official site real-time page anyway!)
Three day weekend alert with Monday being the Emperor's Birthday Holiday. (His birthday is actually tomorrow).
