Independent snow and weather reporting from the Hakuba region of Nagano
New snowfall at base 1cm
Snowfall at base this season 258cm
Posted on Friday 7th February 2014 This is an archived report. The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here.
It did cloud over yesterday and was snowing mid-afternoon.
This morning we have a few cm to report from around the resorts, with up to 5cm on upper slopes around the valley.
Nice blue skies this morning though quite a lot of low cloud hanging around just over the village... some classic 'lifts about the clouds' views on the Happo webcam at the moment.
As of 9am it is -7 degrees at village level and while it will warm up, just to around -3 this afternoon.
Overnight we are looking at snow, and hopefully a good amount as well.
As per our reports, while we have had deliveries of snow on upper slopes, it has been very limited down on lower areas - which means head higher for the better conditions. Fingers crossed tomorrow morning we'll be able to report some decent snowfall down on the lower slopes as well.
That would make for a great start to the weekend.
