>> Conditions observed 7 am at Village level:
12-hour snow 15cm
Temperature -9 °C
Snow depth 170 cm
>> Conditions at 820m (Hirafu midway station):
12-hour snow 20cm (estimated)
Temperature -13 °C
Snow depth 365 cm
This great run of daily top ups continues with another beautiful 15cm+ overnight at village level, with more up on the mountain.
After the previous days’s falls there will be a soft base up there under the new snow, and if you can find somewhere that wasn’t touched yesterday, it should be epic.
It looks like we might get some more snow today before it might lighten up for a day or two, but still plenty of snow potential for the coming week.
