Morning.


Quick early one today as I need to get down to Nakano. More snow since the report yesterday and it is still snowing - lightly here in Hasuike and more so in other areas (still coming down quite hard over at Okushiga).


The snow is due to ease off during today and then we are probably going to have at least a few days of calmer and brighter days. Maybe some sun!


Excellent conditions, surely.
