5cm or so of fresh snow to report since my last report.

Another 15cm of new snowfall here in Zao this morning and a temperature of -5 degrees.

It's Saturday 6th and the day of the official opening of the resort here, with the ceremony to be held on the Uwanodai area by the base centre at 11am.

Just a bit more fresh snow since yesterday here and it's a cloudy start to the day in the village, a bit of light snow lazily falling.

My oh my what a start to December this is. Masses of snow. Over 30cm since my report yesterday to report.

I bring good snowy but also windy news!

Snowing properly this morning with 10cm or so of fresh snow on the ground here in the village areas and more on the way over the next few days and maybe into the weekend as well.
