Morning from Yuzawa on this first day of February. Time is whizzing by.
We had some more snow since yesterday but not that much in terms of cm.
There were a few glimpses of blue sky and sun at times in the afternoon, and by night time to skies seemed quite clear.
This morning starts off cloudy and all forecasts have us down for more snow and it looks like it might already be snowing higher up. (Perhaps just light snow today, rather than the heavy style).
Wednesday and Thursday look like they will be day with much clearer skies and sun, though we might get some bits of that before then.
Some of the snow depth numbers have not been updated yet today and so remain unchanged since yesterday.
