Posted at 10:02am on Wednesday 30th January 2013 This is an archived report. The latest Yuzawa Now report can be found here.
It is a foggy, cloudy morning in Yuzawa with light snow falling in places. Just a dusting really around town with resorts telling of up to 5cm or so of new snowfall. It didn't dip below 0C overnight so rather mild and at the moment it is still around 0C in town. The skies will probably clear up later on today and it should be cold overnight followed by clearer and sunnier skies tomorrow. If the forecast is correct it will be very sunny in fact and Friday may well also start off similar.
With warm temperatures forecast on Friday and Saturday - up to around 10 degrees on Saturday?! - there's a good chance of rain later on Friday into Saturday, but hopefully we can avoid that.
