Blossoms Ski Japan Nozawa
Blossoms Ski Japan Nozawa
A truly unique time of year in Japan. Before the main event being the world famous Sakura Cherry Blossoms you can see the just as pretty pink Kawazu-Zakura in bloom around Tokyo and many parts of the country right now. At the same time we have 30cm plus of fresh snow and down to -10 degrees temps forecast for Nozawa on Wednesday!
Waking up to a slight dusting up high on the mountains in Nozawa the resort reporting a respectable 15cm of fresh snow. The weather guys are saying it should snow light to moderately all day and temps set to drop with a strong North West wind change on its way.
At this stage the Sakura blossoms are expected around Nozawa about April 10th onwards and Iiyama is a great viewing point; https://www.nozawaholidays.com/news/cherry-blossoms-in-nozawa/

The main snow show is still expected on Wednesday then sunshine again on Thursday which is my prediction for the best day of the week. Plenty of clear skies and spring sunshine following that with a little cold dip on Sunday where we could see some more snow. Will be very quiet on the mountain this week so enjoy the empty slopes and fresh snow.
