The long weekend is over and today we are back to something like normal. Though of course it is still peak season.

Hello from Hakuba on this 'middle day of the long weekend' Sunday morning.

Good morning from Hakuba and welcome to the start of the long - and likely rather busy - weekend.

Fine in the morning with clouds in the afternoon is how things ended up yesterday.

It was good to see the rain turn into snow yesterday during the day on the mountain, and Hakuba 47 were reporting 5cm of snow by mid-afternoon.

This morning the fresh snow news is less in the north with Cortina just reporting 1cm.

Some more snow to report to you this morning though differing numbers, the northern Cortina reporting 20cm with Goryu and Happo reporting 3-5cm and 47 reporting 5-10cm.

And it is an excellent morning. I bring you very good news.

Good morning to you all and here are your Sunday morning headlines; fresh snowfall reported by ski resorts.

Yesterday by late morning more and more blue sky has started to appear between the clouds but it was getting cloudy again later in the afternoon.

Some snow numbers left over from yesterday morning since my report, and there is just a bit of fresh being reported by resorts this morning.

Good morning from Hakuba. Getting on for 10am, it has been a busy morning...

Anyone else enjoy yesterday? Day of my season so far I would say.

It's a very good morning and I am really pleased to be able to report some good snowfall numbers.
