Nozawa Onsen Snow Report 14 February 2016
Warm days are soon to be gone in Nozawa Onsen
The past few days have been pretty warm in Nozawa Onsen. We’ve had the pleasure of being able to sit outside and soak up the sun, to ride in t-shirts, and to not worry about being cold when sitting on the chairs. With this comes a payoff though. The clouds are currently letting down rain over us and this will likely continue until the afternoon.
