Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata

Snowfall at base this season 1346cm

Posted on Wednesday 3rd March 2021 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.


As we kind of expected, the nasty, raining morning yesterday turned to snow at the end of the day.


The wind that closed both Suginohara and Seki Onsen continued, so this morning the car was literally plastered with snow and had a cornice forming off the roof. Drifts all over the place, too.


It's still snowing lightly at the moment, but the forecast is for a sunny day later. So come out and enjoy the nice new snow, maybe with a nice blue sky overhead.
