Posted on Monday 10th March 2014 This is an archived report. The latest Nozawa Now report can be found here.
After a fine day of weather yesterday, we are being treated to more fresh snow this morning in Nozawa. Nozawa resort is reporting 18-20cm across the mountain. The way things are going, it's as if nature has mixed up February and March this season! No complaints... we just need to make the most of the fine first third of March we have had.
So yes, new snow to play in this morning again which should fill in those weekend tracks, and light snow has been falling from the skies. Limited visibility though on upper parts of the resort and moderate winds I hear, but lifts seem to be open as planned.
We are expecting the snow clouds to be over Nozawa through the day and perhaps clear up tonight but very likely tomorrow it will start off cloudy.
