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


New snowfall at base 0cm
Snowfall at base this season 12cm

Posted on Sunday 1st December 2019 This is an archived report. The latest Yuzawa Now report can be found here.


Good morning from Yuzawa.


And it's a cracker. The sun is out and blue sky. Beautiful - made more so by the snow remaining on the ground. Lots of it around town might not last until tomorrow though as it is going to be a mild day perhaps rising slightly above 10C in town.


Rain is due in town tomorrow as the mild conditions continue but hopefully it will be colder come Tuesday and bring with it more snow.


Kagura remains open and here are the details of what is open:


Mitsumata Ropeway (7:30am-4:00pm)

Mitsumata Number 1 quad (7:30am-4:00pm)
