Morning.
Despite slightly higher expectations, we measured 17 cm of new snow. It’s still snowing lightly, with the sun shining through the clouds.
The snow quality is a bit heavier than yesterday. Visibility is fair both at the bottom and the top.
There is very little wind at both the base and higher up, but according to the forecast, it will pick up later. It seems the crowds have disappeared, though it’s still quite early.
Kagura has closed many lifts today due to the wind.
