"The storm will bring widespread precipitation starting Tuesday afternoon, peaking Tuesday night, and tapering off through Wednesday, with consistent wind impacts on exposed ridges."
"Snow levels during the storm are expected to be mostly between 300 to 500 meters in Hokkaido and 600 to 900 meters across central Honshu, affecting lower mountain accumulation."
"Hokkaido hills are positioned for a significant refresh, while upper terrain at resorts like Okushiga and Naeba will perform better than lower elevations farther south."
"Forecast totals show Kiroro could reach 20 centimeters, Naeba and Okushiga around 10 centimeters, while Hakuba may see lighter totals due to its lower mountain snow levels."
A storm from Tuesday afternoon to Wednesday will deliver the most substantial snowfall across Japan in several days. Hokkaido will experience the best conditions, with snow levels between 300 to 500 meters, while central Honshu will see levels from 600 to 900 meters. Snow quality will improve with elevation, but it will primarily be dense spring snow. Forecasts indicate varying totals, with Hokkaido resorts potentially receiving up to 20 centimeters, while others may see lighter accumulations. After Wednesday, milder spring weather is expected to return.
