Good morning from Naeba!.
It's snowing again, there is some wind and the visibility is limited.
The snowfall since yesterday was 7cm.
Because the cold weather continues, it is really nice quality powder snow. Unfortunately, the mountaintop area is closed due to the possibility of avalanches.
It's crowded again today due to it being a national holiday.
Both the crowds and the weather should calm down from tomorrow with clearer skies and warmer conditions expected.
