Posted on Friday 27th December 2024 This is an archived report. The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here.
Good morning from Hakuba.
I have to post early this morning due to me having to get to Nagano Station (so too early for some official data).
Quickly, the news from Hakuba is very good. Check out the snowfall being reported by the ski areas below... up to 50cm at upper elevations once again. (My base measurement is slightly under 16cm as of 7:45am)
We certainly are being treated well this December.
And check out Hakuba 47 snow depth... hitting 300cm.
Have fun. Take care!
Oh yes, by the way, I will be reporting more snowfall tomorrow morning. And perhaps a lot of it, too.
