Posted on Friday 18th March 2022 This is an archived report. The latest Yuzawa Now report can be found here.


Good morning from Yuzawa.


There is some fresh snow to report this morning! Here's what is being reported by ski areas:


Kagura: 3cm

Maiko Snow Resort: 1-3cm

Ishiuchi Maruyama: 1cm


There has been just a light dusting in places around town, but right now it's either raining slightly or snowing lightly as you go higher up (or just a bit damp and cloudy).


A high of about +5C is expected this afternoon in town and we're probably not going to avoid rain. BUT hopefully that will be snow by tomorrow morning. It's hard to say what is going to happen though as it will just depend on how cold it can get. We'll just have to see.


Stronger winds are expected later this afternoon. GALA Yuzawa are making a note that if the wind gets too strong they may need to close earlier than planned (but are open as normal at the start of the day).
