Posted at 9:58am on Friday 29th March 2013 This is an archived report. The latest Yuzawa Now report can be found here.
It's a bit of a damp and wet morning here in Yuzawa. Very light rain has been falling since earlier on - nothing major - and it doesn't seem to be able to decide to continue or not. Resorts around town almost all seem to be reporting 'cloud'.... hmmmm!
Lots of fog around this morning too.
Hopefully it will completely clear up by afternoon which is what the forecast says will happen.
Yesterday was very warm. Up to between 15 and 20 degrees and parts of Niigata to the north got to over 20 degrees.
Happily it's cooler this morning and about 5 degrees now.
Some of the runs low down by town are looking rather... dirty. Not that pure white fluff that we all love. But, you can still slide down it!
Tomorrow the forecast is for cloud and perhaps some sun.
