Morning from Nozawa on this national holiday.
Just a little snowfall overnight with 10+cm being reported on the upper areas by the ski area.
Looks like light snow is still happening up there but it's clearer lower down and just cloudy conditions are on the forecast for today. Sounds like there might be a blowing wind on the mountain too.
From tomorrow we will have a few days of clearer, sunnier and calm weather conditions. It is also going to get mild, probably unseasonably so.
Reassuringly, there's fresh snow due on the other side of it, around Tuesday-Wednesday.
Fresh snowfall recorded by the resort (since yesterday morning):
- Yamabiko (1407m): 11cm
- Uenotaira (1230m): 11cm
- Hikage (660m): 2cm
- Nagasaka (615m): 2cm
- Karasawa (563m): 0cm
