Morning from Madarao Kogen. And it's snowing. Yes, around 5cm or so I reckon and some decent snowfall coming down now as I'm writing this. Colder as well this morning and the snow forecast to be falling for the day so looking good for a pre-weekend topup. A moderate wind blowing around this morning but the resort seems to be open as planned.
Forecast for tomorrow is for a cloudy start - perhaps some snow showers lingering - but clearing up later in the day. Back to snow on Sunday by the looks of things...
Long weekend upcoming. Holiday in Japan on Monday, as well as Chinese New Year, means that it should be a busy weekend.
