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


New snowfall at base 15cm
Snowfall at base this season 937cm

Posted on Thursday 14th February 2019 This is an archived report. The latest Yuzawa Now report can be found here.


More snow with another 15cm since my report yesterday morning. (Kagura are reporting 20cm and Maiko are reporting 10cm, though those are presumably 'overnight' numbers). So another nice layer of snow to play in this morning and it is still snowing though expected to ease during the morning leaving us just with cloudy skies later.


There may be some sun in the morning tomorrow... and then back to snow on Saturday.


We have returned to some good consistency which is always good to be able to report.


Some ski resorts are giving away chocolate/cocoa/other goodies this morning to celebrate Valentines Day!
