Japan - Tottori: latest snow conditions round-up

JAPAN REPORT Alas, after the promising colder, snowier weather reported at last a week ago, our friends at SnowJapan.com are reporting it has gone back to too often warm and wet conditions across much of the country. So snowfall at Niseko (100/265cm / 40/106") has stalled with little fresh to report and current conditions being windy. It has got up to a six-metre (20 feet) seasonal snowfall to date though, 3 metres/10 feet less than what had accumulated by this point last season.

A little more snow reported in the last few days at some areas further south, although here too a mixed picture. For example, Minakami (100/100cm / 40/40") reported 18cm (7 inches) of fresh snow overnight on Tuesday morning but that was after rain the previous afternoon. Strong winds have been a feature at centres across the country.
