Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata


New snowfall at base 1cm
Snowfall at base this season 229cm

Posted on Sunday 19th January 2020 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.


This morning is a day to look at your sleeve if the snow continues to gently float down. We had perfect flakes - hexagonal, sparkly, perfectly formed. Once again, very little new snow, but it was nice snow, and we want to stress the positives in this snow-challenged year, right?


All areas are now going, but we do need to get some fresh to keep things nice out there. Probably a bit more fell higher up overnight, though (see, positive news!)
