Someone, obviously a newcomer clearly losing sleep over these things, asked about the snowfall numbers that are presented in this report.

There's fresh snow on the ground this morning with ski areas reporting up to 15cm of fresh on the slopes.

I have to be early and quick this morning so not all info is in yet, but ski areas are reporting up to 10cm of fresh snow on the mountains.

Some snow out on the slopes to find yesterday.

There's some fresh snow to report this morning, mostly ranging from a dusting through 3cm... but Jigatake is reporting 10cm.

That rain of the last few days has been really annoying, but I was hoping to be able to report fresh snowfall numbers this morning.

After the warmth (and rain later on), we have very clearly colder conditions and a little snowfall this morning.

The clouds cleared up to some extent during the day yesterday giving us some periods of blue sky and some sunshine too.

Yesterday we went from nearly clear blue skies to gradually more cloudy conditions and some light snow starting to fall.

This morning we started with a lot of cloud but around 9am it was beautiful blue skies.

After that lovely fresh snow to play in yesterday morning, there's just a little extra to report this morning. It sounds like we can expect a modest layer out on the slopes.

It is a very good morning, too, as we have a nice amount of fresh snow.

Well, February started with some rubbish rain (booooo!), but it was snowing later on (hurray!).
