Posted at 9:23am on Friday 22nd February 2013 This is an archived report. The latest Yuzawa Now report can be found here.
It was snowing for pretty much all of yesterday - though at times it must be a said a rather wet kind of snow down here in town areas. Up top this morning Kagura are reporting up to 30cm of new snow since yesterday and other resorts around the town area are saying 10-15cm or so.
This morning we start off with cloudy skies, a current temperature of -2C in Yuzawa and just a light wind. A few small breaks in the cloud here and there but forecast says light snow and cloud for the day. And that from tonight we'll get more snow, with snow likely to be falling through the coming weekend.
Today is going to be quite mild but from tomorrow it should get colder again and that will last through until Tuesday when we can expect some sun and warmer conditions.
For now though especially if we get that further top up of snow tonight it should be really nice conditions for the weekend.
