Posted on Tuesday 6th February 2024 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.
Pretty nice fall of fresh snow yesterday and into the evening. It started just as I was finishing yesterday's report; it started slow but fell pretty steadily through the day. Not a massive addition to our snowpack, but no complaints either!
We have had some more encouraging figures from the resorts (although many seem to be too busy today digging to report!), because it was getting pretty thin in some places, especially to the south and east (no, the snow does not fall evenly across the whole area).
Today, as I'm writing, fog has just come in. It almost looked like it would clear a bit there around 7 am, but we're in the soup suddenly. Colder air coming in from the north? It could keep snowing, so I hope so.
