Yesterday didn't turn out to be much fun at all. The rain ended up being pretty bad and dampening spirits with it. But the good news is that it is colder this morning and we have a few cm of fresh snow in the village.

No new snow to report. And light rain (sleet higher up). Not the best start to a report that, is it?

It's not quite as cold this morning and only 5cm or so of snow to report since my last report. The sun is out. Yes, it's one of those days in Niseko.

I'll never get bored of reporting 15-20cm of new snow in a morning, so this morning I very happily once again report another 15-20cm of new snow in the village area of Niseko since my last report!

It is another extremely cold morning here in Niseko (-10C). Niseko Village and Niseko Annupuri resorts are this morning reporting temperatures on the mountain of -17C. Wrap up well!

Another 30cm of fresh snow to report this morning from Niseko and another extremely cold morning. -10C out there... actually slightly colder than it was earlier on!

There may well be a few sore heads out there early on this morning, but the cold conditions might help snap some people out of it and the the ski lifts will be going about their job as normal.

It is a very cold morning here in Niseko. We have another 5cm of fresh snow this morning. All is calm, lots of blue sky and the sun is out. A beautiful morning actually - as long as you are wrapped up and ready for the cold. Did I mention it was cold? Earlier, the thermometer told me -10C outside.

Another 10-15cm of snowfall here in Niseko since yesterday and it's a decidedly colder morning this morning, around -5C at the moment. Variable winds on the mountain with Annupuri reporting 13m/s and above, along with a temperature of -15C up top.

Welcome to the weekend. And I have more snow to report, another 5-10cm or so since yesterday. It is not as cold as yesterday and currently around -1C in the village, cloudy but fairly bright with it and light snow forecast for the day.

The snow continued yesterday and we have another 15-20cm of the wonderful stuff around the village this morning. I could get used to saying that every morning!

Yesterday was an excellent day in Niseko with wonderful conditions being enjoyed out there. After the bumper snow that I reported yesterday I wasn't quite expecting to be reporting similar this morning. But that's the way it is, with another 35cm of fresh snow to report this morning.

A very good morning to you from Niseko. And a very good morning it is! I have 40cm of fresh snowfall to report today and it is still snowing. Oh yes. And it is very cold as well, earlier on when I got up it was closing in on minus double digits, and currently around -8C. Annupuri say it is -15C up top this morning.

Another 10cm of snow to report this morning from the village with the temperature around the same as yesterday as well as those winds affecting some top lifts on the mountain as well. Similar kind of conditions as yesterday really.
