Posted on Thursday 4th April 2019 This is an archived report. The latest Nozawa Now report can be found here.
Some more snow yesterday including 22cm being reported by the resort from the top Yamabiko area. Just a little down below and no more overnight.
Today sunshine is due along with blue skies though there has been a fair bit of cloud around early on. It should be a really great morning out there. Early morning is recommended as we are clicking back into 'spring' with quickly rising temperatures, and more so tomorrow.
We might not be over with the snow just yet though with a chance of more early next week. (!)
