Good morning from Hakuba and here we are on April 8th and I have some snowfall to report.

There's lots of cloud around this on this very mild/warm morning with a bit of wind to add to the mix - hopefully that won't be affecting top lifts that are open.

Chilly overnight here in Hakuba and a chilly start to the morning but the sun is going to be out for the day once again today and will be warming us up.

A bit more snow overnight - not as much as we might have hoped for, but hey look at the calendar - and right now there's some cloud about but lots of blue sky too.

More snow on the ground this morning with Cortina reporting 10-20cm and Hakuba 47 just a few cm at base and up to 10cm on the mountain.

It was rain for most of the day yesterday. Not nice.

The good news from Hakuba continues today with another 15cm of snow on the ground here and more on the mountain.

Hello, and it's another excellent mid-season morning here in Hakuba. Oh hold on, it's mid-March!

Relentless snowfall at the moment in Hakuba.

It's a really great morning to everyone from Hakuba. Can you tell I'm happy?

Ahhh it's good to see snow falling again. And it's due to be falling for the next few days. Bring it on, lots of it please!

A bit more cloud moved in later in the afternoon, but it was a real feel-good day yesterday.

Morning from Hakuba. Some fresh snow on the ground this morning.

Limited visibility in many areas yesterday, with snow falling higher up and giri-giri rain at times lower down at base.
