One last day of making a highly educated guess here (the flu must not win!) but one aided with at least one ruler-augmented poke in the snow, if not in the formal snow plot.

Happy to say we got way more than the 2cm predicted by Niigata prefecture. That’s good news; also, despite a high-pressure cell off the coast that probably is responsible for today’s slight rise in the freezing level - but only to 800 meters this time - the freezing level is going back down to sea level and snow should continue to fall.

The winds have quieted down, which is good news all around (all the lifts are running today, and the really high winds on the peaks yesterday hopefully have calmed for the climbing set).
