Posted at 9:40am on Sunday 30th December 2012 This is an archived report. The latest Yuzawa Now report can be found here.
It ended up being a fine morning yesterday and most of the afternoon as well, just some wispy clouds forming over time. But generally a fine and mild kind of day.
It was mild overnight and this morning it's almost warm here in Yuzawa. Right now it is 7C. Rain is still very possible, likely even, but for now it's just cloudy.
There is a moderate wind this morning and the GALA Yuzawa resort is closed for the day because of that, and Yuzawa Kogen opened later than planned, but other resorts in the region seem unaffected and open as normal.
Tomorrow should be colder - and snowier. The fresh layer of snow would be very welcome after these last few days of warmer temperatures and lack of fresh supply. The forecast has snow clouds likely through until the end of the week.
