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


New snowfall at base 5cm
Snowfall at base this seas 564cm

Posted on Sunday 3rd March 2024 This is an archived report. The latest Yuzawa Now report can be found here.


It was great to get that snow yesterday and there was more of it during the morning. (Though, true to the patterns this season, it didn't continue for as long as we would have liked!)


We got some blue sky and glimpses of the sun at times in the afternoon, even if it remained largely cloudy.


This morning started with lovely clear blue skies. It was quite windy early on but not so much as ski lifts started to move.


Approaching 10am, there is some cloud starting to form and forecasts do say it will cloud over and we might be treated to more snow tonight and into tomorrow. That sounds good.


Keep cold enough, please!
