Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata


New snowfall at base 1cm
Snowfall at base this season 689cm

Posted on Wednesday 8th February 2023 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.


The sun and warm temperatures yesterday really softened up and rounded the snow out. The roadside snow walls are all softened out and kind of slushy looking (technical term).


There was a minuscule dusting of new snow this morning; I heard it melting and dripping off the roof and feared for a moment that it might be rain, but luckily it wasn't.


It's just kind of gray and quiet right now; it feels like something should be happening, but not sure what that will be.
