This morning there is a lot of cloud around, but there's some blue ski to see, too, and the sun is out. It is thankfully much calmer than yesterday.

It's 8am and the situation is still a bit unclear still this morning.

There was more snow during the day yesterday, especially on the mountain -- a decent amount too.

This morning Nozawa Onsen is saying that there's a whopping 45cm of snowfall up on the top areas!

Fine weather across the region this morning, but it might not last all day. It is a cold early morning but it will likely end up being a rather mild day.

What a few days it is turning out to be!

A good old traditional-sounding 30cm of fresh snow being reported by the ski area meaning we should have some fine conditions to enjoy this morning.

Since yesterday the ski area has reported up to 15cm of new snowfall on the upper areas of the mountain, with 5cm of that since mid-afternoon.

Another grey morning with a bit of snow to report... up to 15cm up top, according to the ski area.

Since yesterday the ski area has reported up to 30cm of new snowfall on the top area of the mountain (and 5-10cm down to base).

More snow! Yes, this burst of snowy activity over the last run of days continues --- and it might well continue (on and off) into next week. Marvel(l)ous!

It is a lovely morning, though signs of some cloud starting to gather/appear.

Good morning from Nozawa. It's a very pleasingly cold, wintery and snowy Saturday morning!

It's a decent start to March with 10-20cm of fresh snowfall across the mountain, according to the ski area.
