This morning offered clouds with some glimpse of sun here in Nozawa. The runs were good and quite fast despite relatively high temperatures. At about noon the winds picked up and brought in heavier clouds bringing small amounts of rain to the lower slopes. Together with temperatures a bit above zero this made the runs a bit sticky on most of the mountain.
The forecast calls for the precipitation to strengthen some more tomorrow which will unfortenatly bring rain to large parts of the resort. However by tomorrow evening the freezing level will go down again and we are expecting some snow to fall all the way down to the village. The precipitation on Friday will come as snow up top and as rain on the lower parts of the mountain.
