Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata
New snowfall at base 2cm
Snowfall at base this season 248cm
Posted on Thursday 27th December 2018 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.
The snow is back on, and the temperature is down in Myoko today.
The announcer on local FM Myoko says it will be 6° colder than yesterday, with a 90% chance of snow. Good odds, I'd say. Only about 2cm so far, but it's coming down more heavily at times. Hopefully my snow study equipment will all be buried by tomorrow (I love having to probe for my study boards; they're 70cm tall but even then they often disappear).
Thanks, too, to the people who made some nice comments on SnowJapan's Facebook page after my long explanation of my approach to doing these reports. It's all about sharing, right, not the ¥ (cause there isn't. Any.) He he he. I have to admit I've been caught a couple of times "You're the Myoko Now! guy, aren't you?"
My secret identity largely remains just that.
Great skiing here, folks; just bundle up today, especially as we're likely to get stronger winds tonight and into tomorrow.
I'll report those who are up today. Also, most main lifts are now running, so I'll only note unusual closures, etc.
