Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata


New snowfall at base 30cm
Snowfall at base this season 1376cm

Posted on Friday 20th February 2015 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.


A lot of new snow this morning; it started about 8 last night, and has been falling pretty steadily since then.


Our season of strange snowfall continues, though; it's not that cold, the snow is pretty heavy; we didn't have wind earlier but now it's pretty gusty at moments.... not super-light powder, that much is for sure.


The temperatures are all over the place; the car tells me it's -1, and that's what I'm sticking with for your base temp today.
