Posted on Saturday 25th February 2023 This is an archived report. The latest Zao Now report can be found here.
Temperatures have taken a plunge and it is snowing albeit lightly. A bit more tonight but only a bit.
The usual fog higher up but murky in places. This may go somewhat during the day as it is expected to brighten up slightly.
Wind is fairly strong in places so a choice of that with lower visibility but better snow or stay lower.
Most of the same tomorrow but with stronger winds, so do Kurohime today if you're only here for the weekend as well as Paradise.
