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


New snowfall at base 23cm
Snowfall at base this seas 849cm

Posted on Wednesday 2nd February 2022 This is an archived report. The latest Yuzawa Now report can be found here.


The snow started up again yesterday evening and this morning there's another 23cm of fresh snow. Ski areas that report also mentioning similar numbers. It's still snowing and we are expecting it to continue, though perhaps lighter. Snow remains on the forecast over the coming days though so we are going to get regular refreshes and any sign of the sun will probably be short-lived.


Currently -1C in town.


Wind is stopping Kagura from fully opening this morning but both the Mitsumata and Tashiro Ropeways are open. Early on it's the main 'Kagura Area' that is not opening. Other ski areas look like they are all opening, though some lifts may be delayed.
