Nozawa Snow Report 4 February 2016: Overview
With some fresh snow around the resort from the last few days, today is going to be a cracker of a day up on the mountain. The pistes should be smooth and fast, with the snowpack holding well thanks to the low temperatures. We should see temperatures at around the -7°C mark today; fairly crisp but with little winds and the sun out it should be beautiful.
Temperatures will be falling to around -12°C over the weekend as more snow comes on its way. We should be seeing light snow beginning to fall tonight, continuing through to the weekend and becoming heavy throughout Saturday.
Most courses are planned to be open, the following are not currently open:
Challenge 39 °
Grand Prix
Hachiman
Mukairin
Kandahar East
