Snow up high in Minakami but other places have had a bit of sun this morning though the clouds seem to be coming in again now. Not as cold as it has been recently so pretty pleasant in the lower resort but starting to get colder again now that the sun has gone. The snow is still great after the big falls of late but some of it has become a bit heavy due to the sun and you can feel it change as you ski down the hill from top to bottom.

Light snow still dominates the weekly forecast but there are a couple of sunny spells sprinkled in their too.
