Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata


New snowfall at base 20cm
Snowfall at base this season 1548cm

Posted on Wednesday 25th March 2015 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.


The snow let up by this morning, with the sun now shining on Myoko.


We saw a few lightning flashes last night—something that can mean pretty heavy snowfall—and Akakan is reporting an additional 50cm, more than we got at base level (let's add on 20cm today, just to be conservative). Very strong winds earlier in the day; snow was really flying off the high ridges around 8 am. A little more settled now, although the wind is now coming from the east down in town, while the Coast Guard tells me it's form the northwest on the coast—signs the high pressure is moving in.


Looks to be warm again in the coming days.
