*7cm or more has fallen in the last 24 hours in Niseko. At 7:00 today the temperature was -1°C. It is currently snowing and looks like we can now expect significant snowfall throughout the day. This will be a welcome refill on the mountain as we will hopefully see more terrain open up this week as the base builds. What a difference a day makes….yesterday we reported that there will be no snow until later in the week – wrong! It now looks like we can expect snow every day besides one!! Bring it on.

360niseko Snow Station Readings Disclaimer
The 360niseko’s snow station for the 2020-21 season is in Higashiyama at 200m *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 taken from what is outside our house on the ground.
