Resorts this morning reporting up to 10cm of fresh snowfall and outside my place I have up to 5cm. It is still snowing now.

Light winds early but stronger are forecast for later today, let's hope they don't mess with lifts.

Clearer conditions are expected tomorrow and maybe Wednesday. Right now there's the ominous sign of potential rain around Thursday as we hit a warmer spell of weather, but hopefully if that happens it won't last long and be followed again by snow.

In resort news, Hakuba Minekata has now closed for the season.
