Our own Now reports are starting to kick into daily mode now as the season starts, or at leasts quickly approaches! They can of course be found here: http://www.snowjapan.com/e/daily/now.php

From this afternoon our weather forecasts and snow depth info data for the majority of ski resorts around Japan is also now up and running. It will take a day or two to fix everything up and make sure it is all working properly, so please bear with us as we see to that.

Once up and running the weekly weather forecast is updated every 3 hours, while snow depth information is updated once a day.

Please note that, unlike our Now! reporting, Snow Japan does not have any control over the weather data and snow depth data.

The weather data is provided by a reputable major Japanese weather forecasting company, whilst the snow depth data is ultimately being provided by the ski resorts themselves.

For more information about our weather reporting, please check this page:
