Good morning from Naeba! It's a bright and sunny start in the Mikuni valley today. We can expect a clear day today, with possible cloud pushing in later bringing some snow showers. The air temperature will remain around 0°C today, keeping the snow and the pistes in good condition today, especially with the 11cm of fresh snow that accumulated last night. There will be a light wind later in the day.
Looking forwards, tomorrow we can expect another sunny day, however the wind will pick up moderately and there is a chance of some snow overnight. Daytime temperatures throughout the week will remain above 0°C with sunny, spring-like days mixed with snow showers. Next Wednesday is the most notable day in the forecast currently, with temperatures expected to push up as high as 5°C. This may give way to some rain on Wednesday night.
