Nozawa Onsen snow report Sunday 28th March 2010

28 Mar

I have been checking out the “Dead or Alive” big air competition in Myoko today, where a 13 year old student has taken out the title with a 1080 ‘make’ over a jump around 20 meters in length, taking home 500,000 Yen. Pretty good weather for the event too, with the cloud rolling in just as the event was finishing.

Light snow and cloudy conditions predicted today for Nozawa, with heavier falls in the evening and tomorrow night with fairly cold conditions which should make for some more good spring riding. Warmer again on Wednesday and Thursday before rain and then another cold change.

New Snow (Resort): 1~3 cm
New Snow (Village): 0 cm
Weather: Light snow for most of the day and fairly cold temperatures.
Official statistics: (16:20)
