New Restaurant Nozawa Onsen
Fun in the sun for the Weekend in Nozawa
Yesterday on the slopes was surprisingly good. We had a little top up of snow the night before and combined with what was blown from the machines gave good coverage on the upper slopes at Yamabiko. Enhanced with beautiful sunny conditions and very few people around made for an awesome Friday. This morning on the cams looks like a bit of a carbon copy.
Temperatures seem to be the warmest of the week today, with light winds, so you can probably leave the extra winter layers at home. Ideal for everyone who wants to be outside to get some vitamin D and soak in some rays.
Enjoy the sun while it lasts! December has significantly less sunny hours in general, plus more cloudy days are ahead in the forecast.

☃️SNOW FORECAST
The sun disappears tomorrow and temps will dip into the night. The middle of next week a few centimetres of snow are forecast for the top sections, hopefully no rain. The longer term still has that Northern wind change and a Siberian bomb building from next Sunday so in a week we could see a significant change on the way.
More and more restaurants and bars opening up as people start to roll into town. A new one Pots a Korean taste sensation also swinging the doors open yesterday. Be sure to check it and many of the amazing long term staples out when in Nozawa.
