Posted on Tuesday 17th January 2023 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.
Colder temperatures, some snow, and a hint of sun and blue skies in Myoko this morning.
Once again we didn't get a massive snowfall (like we need, really), but about 15cm of nice, light fresh. It's been pretty humid, too, and everything is frosted: tree branches, power lines, car windows and doors. Lot of people out scraping windshields this morning and trying to crack open icy car doors. Other than that, a pretty nice day to be out on the hill. Probably a bit nicer snow than the hard-packed surfaces yesterday.
One thing to add is a shake of the finger at the resorts who can't get an update ready by 8am.
