Independent snow and weather reporting from the Hakuba region of Nagano


New snowfall at base 13cm
Snowfall at base this season 459cm

Posted on Monday 7th February 2022 This is an archived report. The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here.


Good morning from Hakuba.


Yesterday was a cold and snowy day. Not much of a wind and some fine conditions, even if visibility was quite limited. Where I was anyway. (Goryu). I'd guess there was another 10cm or so of snow up there during the day.


It's staying cold this morning and I can report 13cm of new snowfall at base since yesterday.


There's some cloud around still, but lots of blue sky and sunshine. It feels like it's going to be a very fine Monday morning. Forecasts tell us that the next few days will be generally calm and clear at times, if there's any more snow it will just be light.
