Independent snow and weather reporting from the Niseko region of Hokkaido New snowfall at base 1cm Snowfall at base this season 1113cm Posted on Sunday 20th March 2022 This is an archived report. The latest Niseko Now report can be found here We have another dusting of snow and while it isn't 1cm, I feel justified in adding that mm from yesterday to add 1cm to the report today. As I write this report there is some very (very, very) light snow falling. And unfortunately, it's windy on the mountain this morning - enough for the top lifts to be on hold (along with the gondola at Annupuri) at the start of the day. ----- Yesterday I said in my initial report that night skiing was going to be ending on Monday. That was incorrect and it was updated later in the day when I realised my mistake. Sorry about that! Today, Sunday, is of course the last day of night skiing this season. It is always kind of sad to see it happen. It's one of the signs of spring and a gradual winding down of the season. I only made it out for night skiing myself a few times this year and when I did it was very (very, very) quiet. I sometimes wonder what the economics are of night skiing for a ski area - even in a normal season... ----- Niseko Avalanche Report Moiwa base: -3℃, moderate wind, 1cm snowfall. Moiwa 800m: -6.1℃, NNW9.4m/s, 18m/s, gusts. Annupuri 1150m: -9.1℃, N7.6m/s. Hirafu 1000m: -8.8℃, N14.2m/s, blizzard and poor visibility. Coastal data Benkei cape: NE18m/s, Kamui cape: ENE2m/s, 1007hPa, 1.7m waves. Cold air mass inflow from the Sea of Okhotsk. The isobars were tight throughout the night and north to northwesterly wind is blowing strong above 750m elevation. Snowfall is scarce and wind-blown, but snowdrifts are forming in leeward aspects. Cornices have grown long and thin, snowdrifts are forming unstable slabs and are prone to fall/slide easily. The mountain is back to cold winter condition. The wind is forecasted to calm down after 10am, however the avalanche risk may rise as the snowdrift amount grows. It is highly recommended to stay away from slopes with new snow deposit for a while after the wind has settled down. All gates are scheduled to open, however will depend on chairlifts operation. Please follow the ski patrol’s instructions. Sunlight is weak and the surface undulations are difficult to see. The new snow will turn into sticky stop-snow as the temperature rises. Please be careful. Refrain from leaving tracks at the bottom of the valleys in order to minimize risks of glide avalanche accidents. The mountain is slowly shifting into Spring. Have a nice day. ----- Planned ski area operations: Sunday 20th March 2022 The below snow depth and snowfall data is manually checked each morning from official sources.

Not much else to see though with some more early morning fog/cloudy conditions as the ski area opens. We're probably going to get rain later today though, even if it will be snowing at higher elevations. With colder temps due over the weekend the chances of snow increase so we might get to enjoy some fresh conditions. Fingers crossed!
