Warmer day before the next big dump in Nozawa
Nozawa Onsen Snow Report 29th December 2020
Being lured into a false sense of warmth and sunshine today in Nozawa. If the forecast is correct this time tomorrow should see temps almost 15 degrees colder up top and over 50cm of fresh snow falling from the sky. A balmy 5 degrees up top at the moment and plenty of sunshine. Lots of locals taking advantage of the conditions to clear some snow from roofs in preparation of what is to come. This shot of Matsuba No Yu Onsen just a week ago after the last big dump. We can expect at least the same again!
Temp at the top; 5 degrees
New snow since close; 3 cm
Base at the top; 180 cm
Snow conditions; Fun sunny conditions on the slopes
Weather; Sun filled day

We are blessed to have 13 free public Onsens or Hot springs in town just like this one and they will be the place to be when this big freeze hits tomorrow. For all new comers here is a great guide and video on “ How to Onsen” in Nozawa Onsen. A great help to get it right https://www.nozawaholidays.com/onsen-etiquette/
