Independent snow and weather reporting from the Hakuba region of Nagano


New snowfall at base 1cm
Snowfall at base this season 367cm

Posted on Tuesday 7th January 2025 This is an archived report. The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here.


After a bit of a break, I am happy to report that it is snowing this morning.


Temps remain on the mild side, but we now have light snow around base areas and it is coming down very nicely on the Goryu Alpsdaira webcam.


All being well, it will be getting colder today and will still be snowing when I post my next report and I'll have some good numbers to report to you.


Forecasts look promising!
