Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata


New snowfall at base 1cm
Snowfall at base this season 104cm

Posted on Thursday 29th December 2022 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.


It's overcast, the temperatures are up a bit and snow really wants to fall, but not much yet. It's looking promising for later today into tomorrow, so I'm hopeful — and with snowpack numbers continuing to slowly go down, it's time to get serious and build up that depth.


Glad there's not a lot of great powder, though, for the entirely selfish reason that I'm on day four (I think?) of Covid quarantine, and I don't want to lose a good day. Gotta get back in shape, though. Can't wait for this period in history to be behind us, and I can tell the grandkids about them days when I got Covid and it mostly was just annoying.... stay safe, guys! I guess it's really nothing to joke about.
