Today is the last day of operations at Kagura ski area.

It is a bright morning with a kind of overcast feel, with thin cloud early on.

Today starts with bright but overcast skies and we expect some sun later.

Some more news to report and so another report!

Rain this morning and again not very warm as the unseasonable kind of changeable weather continues. There might be some sun later on, though.

Due to forecasts winds, GALA Yuzawa is not open today. It is an unfortunate way to end the season, but can't be helped.

Tomorrow is the last day of the season for GALA Yuzawa and the Tashiro Area of Kagura.

Yesterday the wind seemed to be around until around the middle of the day and then we got rain. Not nice, and not great for the snow.

Cloudy (and some limited visibility in places) yesterday - in the town region, anyway - with some spots of rain in the evening.

So, a bright and sunny day of the hazy kind yesterday and warm too. It warmed up to just over 20C in town, as expected.

From today just two ski areas in Yuzawa remain open - GALA Yuzawa and Kagura.

After that partial clear up yesterday morning, the clouds were back and we endured some at times heavy rain at times later on.

It is Monday morning and we start the week with cloudy/overcast skies.

Well, the grey and rather miserable weather down in town continues this morning.
