Posted on Sunday 29th December 2013 This is an archived report. The latest Yuzawa Now report can be found here.
The sun is out this morning! It's not supposed to be, but it is!
Lets rewind a bit to yesterday when it was snowing for lots of the day, but as I hinted at in the report, there were short periods of time when it stopped snowing and we even saw the sun and blue sky. The snow clouds usually moved back in fairly quickly though.
So there's quite a lot of blue sky up there this morning, but the forecast is for snow all day. I hear it was clouded over earlier as well, so perhaps it will quickly cloud over once again like it was doing yesterday.
For now though, sun is shining down and it's a lovely morning.
15cm of so of new snowfall since yesterday and resorts reporting about that, the most up at Kagura who report 20cm.
