Forecast today: Generally clear
- Max temp: -0.8 °c
- Min temp: -7.1 °c
There is incredible mountain terrain, loads of small local ski areas and some of Japan's finest backcountry terrain in the South Tohoku region.
A typical day out here will include accessing the backcountry with a guide by day to ski the region’s light, dry powder, retiring in the evening to a traditional ryokan hotel and relaxing in a thermally-heated onsen, before eating delicious Japanese delicacies, washed down with warm sake or a local beer.

Snow Overview
Japan
Updated 07/01
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday can just be summed up with “snow” across Japan – proper snorkel depth snow on Honshu, especially.
Things do take a rare dry turn as the week concludes, with temperatures turning slightly milder (although remaining cool) and some (gasp) sun, too.
