Souvenir Nozawa Onsen Japan
Waiting on the powder line in Nozawa
We have been on hold the past few days in Nozawa with some warm conditions. Today we should see a major shift in that with some serious snow fall expected from later today and all the way thru until tomorrow. As I type this the snow is just starting to fall lightly on and off down in the village! 60cm excepted in the next 48 hours then a massive Meter plus forecast from Thursday afternoon. Let’s see if we can get that Phone Booth buried in powder.
🌄TODAY:
Temperature at the top; Not updated yet but in the negative and just 1 degree in town
Wind: max 35 km/h from West North West
New snow since yesterday; 0 cm
Base at the top; 20cm
Snow conditions; Waiting for the dump
Weather; Some shades of blue with the sunrise but snow on the way
🚡LIFTS IN OPERATION: On hold again today but all going well, will open tomorrow. Will keep you posted.
🌄RUNS OPEN: Maybe can walk up for a slide on a sled later today if all the snow arrives
☃️SNOW FORECAST
The forecast looks terrific according to the weatherman so will just need to wait and see what unfolds in the coming days. Looking at the cams this morning and up at Yamabiko still looks good. The trees are white and the piste appears to have a decent coverage. Uenotaira looks like it took a beating so the top up will be most welcome. All going to plan everything including the village will be covered in white by next weekend just in time for a White Christmas.
