Snow Report 4 February 2013 - Japan

JAPAN

After the heavy snows in the last week of January, the first week of February may seem to be something of a disappointment.

A little snow in some regions on Monday gave way to some nice sunny days. Great for a few days ... but massive snow is expected at this time of year rather than consistent nice weather. The midwinter has been a little erratic during 2013.

Anyway, I'd rather be back in Zao Onsen or Myokokogen where two metres of snow cover the skifields ... alas, I am back in Australia. The good news is that I should post my trip report for 2013 next weekend.
