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


New snowfall at base 0cm
Snowfall at base this seas 883cm

Posted on Sunday 22nd February 2026 This is an archived report. The latest Yuzawa Now report can be found here.


We start today with clear blue skies again.


Yesterday it warmed up to around 9C in town and today we expect it to be warmer. Perhaps as high as 14C. (Yikes).


It might get windy(er) later on today, but hopefully won't affect any ski operations.


Tomorrow (which is a national holiday) won't be as warm, though looking further ahead there's still a somewhat worrying lack of snowmen and snowflakes lined up on all the forecasts.


Anyway, it's a beautiful day to be outside. I think that's where we should be!
