Hello and good morning from Nozawa.
The snow keeps on coming. And it is still windy.
I missed any data that the ski area posted yesterday afternoon, so the snowfall numbers below are from 3pm yesterday through 8am this morning (which is when most has fallen anyway).
If you are yearning for some sunshine, Wednesday might be the day to aim for. It will be warmer too, but there's more snow forecast beyond that.
All is good. Load of snow. Be careful.
