Independent snow and weather reporting from the Hakuba region of Nagano


New snowfall at base 6cm
Snowfall at base this season 315cm

Posted on Sunday 31st January 2021 This is an archived report. The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here.


Rather windy conditions prevailing on the mountains early today and it is affecting some lifts, particularly at Happo-one where the gondola and top lifts are on hold. Some other lifts operating at reduced speed.


It is snowing at the moment but there are signs of some breaks in the cloud. There is a chance we end up with clear skies and even some sun later in the day. And that's how we are likely to start tomorrow, which is going to be milder.
