Independent snow and weather reporting from the Hakuba region of Nagano
New snowfall at base 2cm
Snowfall at base this season 371cm
Posted on Monday 26th February 2024 This is an archived report. The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here.
I have to be early and quick this morning so not all info is in yet, but ski areas are reporting up to 10cm of fresh snow on the mountains.
While it hasn't really been sticking on roads, we do have had a bit down at base too (and you can see it on the trees - compare the Hakuba Goryu tree image from today with the image from yesterday).
Hopefully we will get more snow through tomorrow. (I say this as a bit of sun breaks through the cloud and brightens my room)...
