Very light rain here in Hakuba this morning again with no new snow to report overnight.

It will probably keep raining through the day today on and off, hopefully not heavy, and the temperature will keep on above the freezing level with a high of around 6 degrees. Sorry I can't bring better news about the current conditions.

But -- it may turn into snowfall later tonight if we get cold enough and into early tomorrow morning, though it would seem it won't last too long. But it should definitely be turning colder over the next few days so fingers crossed for that.
