Lots of good snow overnight!


Kind of surprised, actually; it seemed like it was tapering off late last night, but woke up to more than 50cm of fresh. It's still coming down now, although the forecast is for clearing skies around noon. It already is brightening to the east (and word is it is already sunny in Nagano City to the south).
