*10cm of fresh snow has fallen in the last 24hrs in Hirafu Village. At 7:00 today the temperature was -3°C. This is starting to get ridiculous! Another dump overnight and heavy snowfall this morning in Hirafu village. With over 50cm ( in the lower village – double that figure on the mountain ) of snowfall in the first 4 days in February we could be in for a record breaking February at this rate. Have fun out there and stay safe!!!
