*7cm has fallen in the last 24 hours in Niseko. At 7:00 today the temperature was -10°C. A glorious morning in Niseko with beautiful clear skies and minimal wind. Most of today’s snow accumulation feel during the day yesterday so unlikely we have had a reset on the mountain.Despite this the cold temperatures overnight will have sucked most of the moisture out of the snow and conditions will be brilliant. Enjoy the sunshine while it lasts as from tomorrow old man winter will back!

360niseko Snow Station Readings Disclaimer
The 360niseko now has 2 snow stations for the 2017-18 season in Higashiyama at 200m and 300m *The Hirafu Gondola is at 305m. Please be aware that this new reading is NOT in Hirafu village but a few kilometers down the road. There is always a deviation how and where the snow falls – the area is famous for micro climates and mini weather patterns. Some days there may be 10cm in Annupuri and 25cm in Hanazono and vice versa – some days 30cm of fresh snowfall comes down everywhere!! Altitude plays a big part as well so please don’t take the 360niseko snow readings as being definitive – the readings are what is outside our houses on the ground.
