Posted on Thursday 26th January 2023 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.
The snow tapered off during the day yesterday, but really hasn't completely stopped falling. The forecast is that it will pick up this afternoon once again, and pretty much keep falling, heavier or lighter, over the coming days.
It's been cold, too, going into double digits overnight (it's a lot colder where I grew up, but I've gotten used to Myoko's mild and snowy winters!).
It is starting to feel a bit more normal here now, with the snow walls on the roads starting to rise, and the small trees and vines starting to disappear.
Many lifts were delayed yesterday because of the cold and snow (as were trains coming in from Nagano, apart from the reliable Shinkansen).
