It's snowing right now and there's limited visibility out there. We got to enjoy some clearer skies in the day yesterday and the forecast seems to be saying there might be a similar pattern to today.

Fresh snow! And a good 30cm or so of it too. That's what we like to see. Always a good number to report.

The resort is reporting 25cm of snowfall since last night and there's more on top of that during the daytime yesterday with 40cm as the official number over 24 hours. I have measured 38cm.

Snowy, blowy and limited visibility this morning.

Forecasts say cloud... nature says No!! For now the sun is out and it's a beauty of a morning.

A mix of wet kind of stuff going on yesterday that happily ended up with some nice snow falling and this morning there's 10+cm of snow to report to you, so the mountain has a layer of fresh to enjoy and the trees are all looking white again.

Things are probably going to be pretty quiet out there on weekdays (which of course will be a bonus for the folks who are able to be here and enjoy themselves).

Some crazy snow scenes from north of us nearer the coastline in Joetsu the last few days.

There's more snow this morning along with another cold start to the day.

Holding off for now and it is actually quite bright, so unclear what way things might go today. But it doesn't look like the snow should get far away, we might get more falling today and tomorrow.

Curious weather this morning, perhaps just because it's not like I was expecting.

As much as I did not want to come here, Tokyo, I really had to. And looking at the webcams and talking with my friend, I so wish I were over in Madarao.

It's a Monday and many people will now be going back to work, so things should be quieter still from today.

Yep, more snow. Let's try to not get bored with it. ;)
