Interesting weather over the region yesterday. Thin wispy clouds developed mid morning and it all went more silvery than the early blue, though later in the day the skies cleared somewhat again for a lovely evening. It didn't warm up too much yesterday but there was inevitably some melt going on.


There has been no fresh snowfall overnight but snow started to fall earlier this morning. Looks like it is coming down quite nicely in some resorts now from the webcams from around town. The snow clouds will probably clear up by tomorrow though with a few days of clearer weather lined up early in the week.


Currently it is 0C in Yuzawa.
