Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata


New snowfall at base 1cm
Snowfall at base this season 1612cm

Posted on Wednesday 2nd March 2022 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.


Rain overnight (at least that's what it sounded like, dripping from roof to roof).


Tiny ice crystals falling now, not exactly the most exciting surface to ski on. I'd say in, but there's only been about 1cm of accumulation so far. It's a gloomy day out there, too, with a pretty thick fog covering the hill.


Sometimes in these conditions it's actually sunny above the ski area, with unkai, a sea of clouds down below. Can't tell from here, of course, and I just wanted to add something more positive than gray and gloom.


Not that we're gloomy, of course, living in a place like this! Snow! Skiing!
