New snow in mid April is unlikely - but not impossible - even in the higher elevations. There will still be lots of snow in higher places like Hakkoda/Sukayu, but the major roads can be expected to be snow-free. Nevertheless, if you do visit the higher elevations, it may be better just in case to get snow tires, although it will likely be okay without.

This is the average weather in Aomori city. Sukayu is 900 m sea level, so it should be 6-7C lower than Aomori city. It can be under 0C before dawn, but it will be warmer around 5-10C at noon. In case of extraordinary snow fall, you may better prepare a plan B.

I will do Hachimantai Aspite line snow wall on 22nd April. I know it sometimes closes due to bad weather so in that case I would skip it. If it snows, I don't want to drive even I have snow tires.
