Hurray, it is actually snowing this morning! Can't help but smile seeing fresh snow fall outside at the moment.

Welcome to the weekend and it promises to be a top Saturday... right here slap bang in the middle of March as well.

The weather is still acting all confused like it's early-mid season, which is of course great news for us all here to enjoy it.

Stormy conditions continue in the wider region at the moment.

So yes it was pretty wild weather conditions yesterday in many parts of Hokkaido.

Ah, here we are at another weekend. The weeks just whiz by don't they.

So yesterday I think I might have mentioned that we were expecting some snow.

Morning from Niseko and a bit earlier than usual as I need to get myself off to Sapporo this morning.

Just a thin new covering of snow this morning to report with 5cm being reported higher up the mountain.

Morning from the Niseko area and welcome to March!

Good morning from Hirafu and some more snow to report on this last morning of February.

Hello and good morning from Hirafu. Just another small amount of fresh snow this morning, around 5cm outside my place.

Morning and there's fine clear blue skies above Niseko this morning.

Good morning Niseko Now readers, and there's another 10cm of snow to report this morning and it looks decent quality too.
