It’s been a snowy day across Nagano and Niigata prefectures with around 10~15cm building up around the village of Nozawa Onsen so far. More is predicted to fall overnight before conditions should clear up somewhat during the day. Strong southwesterly winds on Thursday are forecast to bring the warmer spring conditions back so get a good night’s sleep and have fun in the powder tomorrow morning!
New Snow (Resort): 10 cm
New Snow (Village): 2 cm
Weather: Moderate northwesterly winds and light to moderate snow.
