Independent snow and weather reporting from the Yuzawa & Minamiuonuma region of Niigata


New snowfall at base 1cm
Snowfall at base this seas 218cm

Posted on Thursday 11th January 2024 This is an archived report. The latest Yuzawa Now report can be found here.


There was some light snow yesterday morning but it didn't give us much more than a dusting in places around town (and some spots of rain in places too, but let's try to forget that!)


This morning is starting off quite grey and overcast but clearer skies and sunshine is expected for the day. The clouds are already starting to break a little in regions north of Yuzawa.


Currently -4C.


From later tomorrow more fresh snow should be falling and, fingers crossed, it will be a fair amount on Saturday. There's more due early week too, so that's pretty exciting.
