Posted on Sunday 5th February 2023 This is an archived report. The latest Yuzawa Now report can be found here.
Fine weather yesterday morning with cloud gradually forming, especially to the north of Yuzawa over the Minamiuonuma valley.
It was snowing by evening and this morning there has been about 10cm. A bit on the wet side (in town at least) as it isn't as cold as it has been. Currently just slightly under 0C in town.
Light snow is still falling though it isn't expected to continue for long and there might be some clearer skies later on.
Tomorrow looks like it will be a nice day too with sun from early on. (Not too warm, please!)
