Independent snow and weather reporting from the Yuzawa & Minamiuonuma region of Niigata
New snowfall at base 5cm
Snowfall at base this season 315cm
Posted on Friday 17th January 2014 This is an archived report. The latest Yuzawa Now report can be found here.
After a mostly cloudy day yesterday snow started falling mid afternoon and continued overnight. Nothing major to report this morning with resorts throughout the town reporting 5cm of new snowfall. That's about how much there was on the car this morning as well.
Up to a further 5cm or so is expected before this evening as it continues snowing now.
The weekend is probably going to start with sunny skies over the region but by late in the day snow should be back and we're hopefully looking at some decent snowfall into Sunday.
