Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata


New snowfall at base 23cm
Snowfall at base this season 222cm

Posted on Monday 24th December 2018 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.


Snow! Not a massive fall, but a nice coating of new fresh stuff to recharge the hills for Christmas (even if most people will be leaving this afternoon for those last few days of work in Tokyo - the international crowds aren't fully in yet).


Looks like things will taper off for the next couple of days, then might really hit again around the 27th.


All positive, people, all positive....
