Morning from Nozawa and we have fresh snow! (* Not that such a thing should be much of a surprise for February in Nozawa!)

Some very respectable snow numbers since the report yesterday morning with some really heavy snow falling for quite a lot of the day.

Morning from Nozawa and it's back to snow again today.

Morning from Nozawa and yesterday we were treated to a Nozawa-like snowfall, I'm very happy to report.

It has been a good few days for us with lots of fresh snow at last to play in.

Now this is more like what we expect here in Nozawa!

Yesterday we had mixed weather conditions here in Nozawa.

It's snowing... in a this-season-special kind of way (ie. not huge dump) but the resort reports up to 10cm of snow on the upper slopes this morning and it is continuing to snow as the lifts start moving.

Morning from Nozawa and the snowfall I have to report this morning is similar to yesterday ranging from a dusting on lower slopes to 5cm on upper slopes.

There's a fog down here this morning. But I can see that up higher on the mountain it's clearer and I can see a mix of cloud and blue sky at the moment.

Morning from Nozawa and the first day of February.

Morning from Nozawa and the forecasts did tell us to expect some snowfall overnight - and we got some, a modest 5cm or so.

Morning form Nozawa and there's a good 20cm of fresh on mountain this morning.

Morning from Nozawa where I'm happy to report it is snowing.
