Strong winds this morning and some changes to plans at Nozawa with only some lower areas open and the top closed.

The following lifts are open this morning

Nagasaka Four lift
Nagasaka Triple lift
Hikage Number 2 Pair lift
Hikage Triple lift

(Details below are the plans for a normal day... special circumstances this morning).

It's mad warm this morning. Even overnight temps struggled to dip below 10 degrees and it will probably get close to 20 degrees later. Yikes.

The day has started off fine but clouds are due and they are also due to bring rain with them, those naughty clouds. Fingers crossed they'll run out of juice fairly quick leaving us with clearer conditions tomorrow. It does look like tomorrow should be ok, though we'll be back to rain on Sunday.

The interesting news is how the forecasts show a drop in temperatures next week. It might even get to be cold again.

Let's mixed up conditions!
