More cloud this morning but some breaks in it as well over to the east, but generally just a cloudy day. But.... some snow too. Up to 5cm or so in places!
The Gondola and top lift at Annupuri have been on hold due to wind conditions, and over at Hirafu we have the Ace Number 2 Center 4 and the King Number 3 lifts operating... with the top King 4 also not operating due to wind. Seems to be stronger over on the Annupuri side.
Later on rain is due, to turn hopefully into snow - at least higher up - and that might last into tomorrow. We can't expect anything significant at this stage though of course. But it would be nice to see a new dusting all the same.
