Posted on Wednesday 20th February 2013 This is an archived report. The latest Naeba Now report can be found here.


A couple of cm since yesterday here in Naeba, and both Naeba and Kagura telling us that there has been up to 5cm on the slopes.


Something of a surprise this morning is the blue sky I see up there and the sun out. Wasn't really expecting that. But yes there's a fair bit of blue over Naeba, more cloud hanging over Kagura but it could really clear up.... though the forecast doesn't say that. Snow to move back in?


Right now it is -7C at base here in Naeba and around -11C up on the top of the resort, with just a slight wind.
