Independent snow and weather reporting from the Hakuba region of Nagano
New snowfall at base 2cm
Snowfall at base this season 23cm
Posted on Tuesday 24th December 2019 This is an archived report. The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here.
There was lots of blue sky and sunshine yesterday, but this morning lots of cloud around --- and up to 20cm of snow being reported from the ski resorts around the mountains. Here's the numbers:
Happo-one: 10cm
Hakuba Goryu: 10cm (upper); 1cm (base)
Hakuba 47: 10cm (upper); 5cm (base)
Hakuba Cortina: 20cm (upper); 12cm (base)
Cortina has 20cm of fresh but they don't have enough yet to open for the season.
I have been checking information and can't find any changes to what is open this morning.
What we have open now is most of Hakuba 47, the top area and lower Toomi run at Hakuba Goryu, the upper central area of Happo-one and one course at Kashimayari.
Hopefully the 'heavy snow' there on the forecast for around Friday will help things change by the weekend.
