Independent snow and weather reporting from the Hakuba region of Nagano


New snowfall at base 3cm
Snowfall at base this season 320cm

Posted on Tuesday 2nd February 2021 This is an archived report. The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here.


Good morning from Hakuba.


It was windy overnight. And this morning we are experiencing light rain > light snow.


But let me expand on that as there's some much more excellent news to report. It's one of those funky days when we get a good amount of snow on the mountain with way less so down at base.


This morning there is 20-30cm being reported around various ski areas on the upper slopes - hurray!


I have an observed 3cm to report.


We're hoping for more snow base upwards through tomorrow.
