Some fine conditions to enjoy out on the slopes here in Zao yesterday - my body is recalling it all and reminding me this morning!

There was more snow falling during the day but no more overnight. This morning it's cloudy but bright with the sun breaking through in places. We might get to see some sunshine over the next few days, perhaps a bit of light snow sprinkles as well.

Thursday seems to be Japan getting warmer generally, hopefully by not too much here, and the next snow due later Friday into Saturday.
