Good morning from Hakuba.
Fresh snow!
As you can see from the numbers noted in the lists below, ski areas this morning are reporting up to 15cm of fresh snowfall this morning on upper areas with 5-10cm in lower areas.
It is snowing right now - and quite nicely too. I just measured 8cm. Yes, come on. More! More! More! And yes, we should be getting more through the day today and through tomorrow too; perhaps heaviest today.
So I look forward to bringing you more snowy news tomorrow.
