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


New snowfall at base 1cm
Snowfall at base this seas 585cm

Posted on Thursday 7th March 2024 This is an archived report. The latest Yuzawa Now report can be found here.


It was snowing nicely up at Kagura at times yesterday. Unfortunately, they're not saying how much they got, so the only number I can report is the 1-3cm from Maiko. Not much more than dusting(s) around town since yesterday morning.


This morning there is a lot of cloud around and foggy conditions too, though forecasts indicate that we might be treated to some clearer skies and sun later this morning.


In fact, there is already some blue sky to see just north of Yuzawa.


We are still due snow around Saturday and potentially a decent amount of it too.
