Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata


New snowfall at base 1cm
Snowfall at base this season 134cm

Posted on Saturday 31st December 2022 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.


Sunny this morning in Myoko. A nice day (but I want more snow!). Cloudy off over the ocean to the north. Cold overnight, too so we have lots of sparkly facets on the snow surface this morning. Right now we also have a light wind coming from the southeast.... Hmmm. I have no idea what it all means.


Actually, I think we're in flux, so to speak, with the wind shifting as the next cycle is about to come in. Could be some snow later today, the forecast says, and perhaps a lot on the second day of 2023. Speaking of which, all the best for the New Year, readers! I did not enjoy 2022 (except for all that snow), so I hope we all have a great 2023. No more Covid! Lots of sliding! Joy and snow.
