Independent snow and weather reporting from the Hakuba region of Nagano


New snowfall at base 1cm
Snowfall at base this season 300cm

Posted on Sunday 29th January 2023 This is an archived report. The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here.


Good morning from Hakuba.


Lots of cloud around yesterday but some blue sky. Bit windy at times. Nice conditions and lots of fun.


Looking up this morning there is a complicated mix of grey cloud, white cloud and blue sky at the moment. And perhaps some fog in upper areas of some ski areas. The blue sky is new to the mix over the last hour or so and seems to be increasing.


Not a whole lot of fresh being reported by the ski areas this morning since yesterday but more snow is due later on and tomorrow.


It is keeping cold.


Should be a fine Sunday morning for everyone here. I wish you a good one.
