Independent snow and weather reporting from the Hakuba region of Nagano


New snowfall at base 2cm
Snowfall at base this season 419cm

Posted on Wednesday 3rd March 2021 This is an archived report. The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here.


Ski areas are reporting some modest snowfall on the mountains this morning, which goes a long way to help us forget that rain thing. The most reported by Cortina, 10-15cm.


There is a little snow outside my place and on top of my car this morning, and the report is going to awarded 2cm today.


Right now the sun is breaking through the remaining clouds in some places. A clearing seems to be on the cards.
