Travel and Terrain Advice
Watch out for storm slabs at very high elevations. Be especially careful on slopes where snow that has been moved by northerly winds can be loaded. It is important to avoid terrain that is difficult to support snow accumulation, such as convex or isolated terrains. On the other hand, at very low elevations, glide slab avalanche danger continues. Avoid staying under slopes with glide cracks. The recent rainfall has caused the snow to melt, so please take this into account when setting your tour route. The weather is forecast to improve. Have a good day.
Avalanche Problem
ストームスラブ Storm slab
At very high elevations there could have been 20-30 cm of snowfall. Also, since yesterday afternoon, there has been a continuous northerly wind averaging 15 m/s on the main ridge. Watch out for slabs that have formed on the leeward side.
全層雪崩 Glide slab
Even if rainfall stops, snowmelt will continue at the bottom of the snowpack. Try to avoid slopes with glide cracks. Also, do not stagnate under them.
持続型スラブ Persistent slab
It remains with high uncertainty.
概要
Avalanche
No avalanche reports were received yesterday (26th) due to inclement weather.
Snowpack
Yesterday (26th), about 25 mm of rain fell during the day at the foot of the mountains. This resulted in snow melting at lower elevations and the expansion of glide cracks. Yesterday afternoon, the pressure pattern changed to a winter one and temperatures dropped. However, due to the amount of rainfall, we need to be vigilant for glide avalanches on slopes with glide cracks. At very high elevations, it appears to have been snowfall, but there is uncertainty as to its quantity. Please check the amount and its bonding with the old snow on site.
Weather
Today, cold and moist air is expected to affect the area at first, but high pressure is expected to gradually build up. The Japan Meteorological Agency is forecasting northerly winds, cloudy skies, sunny skies before noon, and daytime high temperatures of 10 °C (50 °F) for northern Nagano Prefecture. At 703 m elevation in Hakuba, the temperature is 0.3 °C (as of 5:00 a.m.).
