Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata


New snowfall at base 12cm
Snowfall at base this season 561cm

Posted on Thursday 25th January 2024 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.


After the nice snowfall yesterday, we didn't really have all that much overnight, but it is really coming down right now.


You can add several more cms to the official number for the morning, and I really do a serious, formal check every morning (if you doubt my numbers, and I know there are those in some of the surrounding resorts that don't always get as much as Akakan does who do doubt some of my numbers, come over and poke some snow with me in the morning!). It's coming down at a rate of a few centimeters per hour now.


Nice. Very Myoko.


Just a little warning; lots of snow and a really firm base underneath: sluffing of snow in the backcountry is always something to think about here. Maybe let it settle a bit, especially in the deep, narrow chutes and things out there.
