Posted on Friday 20th December 2024 This is an archived report. The latest Naeba Now report can be found here.


Morning from Naeba.


After last night's snowfall, we are reporting 5 cm of fresh snow at the base.


It's sunny with some clouds, and there's a light breeze.


The great visibility and well-groomed slopes are very inviting this morning.


Tomorrow might be a bit mild and sunny but potentially heavy snow is looking likely from Saturday night and possibly for a few days. Sounds great.
