Posted on Sunday 24th March 2024 This is an archived report. The latest Nozawa Now report can be found here.
After some snow early yesterday, we had a bit of wet during the day (down in the village, I was not able to be out on the mountain), but this morning things are a bit clearer and a bit calmer. Lots of cloud around but seemingly no worry about rain and no change of snow as it is going to be a mild day.
Perhaps some more snow around Tuesday, though it might be wet in lower areas, and other than that some warming up going on. Just as you might expect as we approach April!
