* 0 cm has fallen in the last 24 hours in Niseko. At 6:30 am today the temperature was 4.1 °C… yes that’s not spelling mistake!
Merry Christmas from 360 to all our viewers!
Santa must have been watching this year and all our parking the wrong way round at Max Value, talking too loud in the onsen, putting chopsticks in our rice bowl and the many other gaffes have been suitably punished and the storm forecast to hit last night has failed to show and as we type light rain is falling. Looking at the live cams the same seems to be the case on Honshu as well. In a mad panic this morning dreading a horror Xmas melt we did the rounds of the weather charts and it looks like the storm is still set to show and temps should start to head down across the morning and snow should be falling by lunchtime or late afternoon.
The snow pack is consolidated a bunch and it’s all about the groomers today so grab the family and get out there ho ho ho.
Keep an eye on the live cam of Hirafu Zaka and you may even see this tardy as it shows up.
