This morning started off with light snow and cloudy conditions but we're expecting the snow to ease off leaving us with generally cloudy skies for the day.

After a rather wet and stormy day and evening yesterday - the evening light up operations were cancelled - early morning snow has stopped.

20+cm of fresh snow is always very good of course, though it's a bit wild out there at the moment.

A few more cm of snow on the ground this morning and it is snowing now so fingers crossed we'll be getting some more over the next few days.

Yesterday was a bit wild out there but this morning things have calmed down - just a slight breeze at the moment.

Fresh snow this morning just over 15cm and counting... and some poor visibility once again out there, looks like thick fog at the moment.

A colder morning this morning and snow falling from the skies.

A few cm of snow on the ground this morning.

More fresh snow this morning with just over 10cm outside my place, so I would expect more than that on the mountain.

Strong blowy winds this morning with snow falling and cold temperatures.

The snow clouds are back with us this morning - not a whole lot of fresh yet but snow should be falling through the day and probably tomorrow as well.

All courses apart from Kotan are open.

Mixed conditions today by the looks with snow falling in places and somewhat clearer in others and fast moving clouds moving overhead; fairly windy in places.

A cold start but it has warmed up a bit and doesn't feel too chilly here at base now but the top station is reporting -10C as of 10:30am.
