I have snow to report this morning. It was snowing for large parts of yesterday and while we are looking much whiter this morning there's not a huge amount on the ground in town to report. 5cm or so in places, and as you go north into Minamiuonuma any snow on the ground has already gone - for now of course.
This morning the sun has been out. There's a fair bit of blue sky up there but cloud hanging on as well but generally a bright and sunny morning.
As noted on the Naeba Now page, Kagura has now stopped the shuttle bus service at Mitsumata because you can now use the Mitsumata lift and ski to the Kagura gondola. So they have obviously been on the receiving end of more snow and now lay claim to 100cm up at Kagura.
Right now in Yuzawa it is about 5C and will likely rise to around 9C. Taking a look at the forecast, the next snow is likely Friday night into Saturday.
