New snowfall at base 0cm
Snowfall at base this season 828cm
Posted on Monday 31st March 2014 This is an archived report. The latest Yuzawa Now report can be found here.
Very heavy rain yesterday evening and the rain along with some crazy sounding wind actually woke me up a few times overnight. No snow to show for it at all higher up (Kagura not reporting any snow anyway) and blustery winds are preventing most of Kagura from opening this morning -- just the Mitsumata area open. GALA Yuzawa is open as planned though this morning.
The rain has stopped though and we actually have some blue sky opening up above the town now and as I write this the sun is shining through the window. Clouds are moving fast though, so that might not last long.
Sunny conditions due tomorrow.
The link up between Yuzawa Kogen - GALA Yuzawa - Ishiuchi Maruyama ended for the season yesterday.
