After the fine start to the day yesterday, we did eventually get some yucky rain in town. But the good news this morning is the 19cm of fresh snowfall.

It was a beautiful morning yesterday, with clear blue skies and sunshine. Stunning views of the mountains on offer.

For a brief time yesterday morning we got to enjoy a period of largely blue sky and sunshine, but the forecasts were right.

Well, we did actually get quite a lot of snow during the day yesterday.

It was really snowing quite heavily for a good part of yesterday, and we have had more overnight.

We got rained on yesterday (light at times, heavy in the evening), but we can quickly put that behind us because this morning we have a lot of fresh snow again!

We started this Christmas morning with a lot of cloud around but the cloud gradually started to break and clear from mid-morning.

I bring very good news.

Another 26cm of fresh snowfall to report as of 9am this morning and moderate snowfall still falling.

After a wet start last night, it turned to snow and we already have 14cm and it is quickly building up now with some moderate to heavy snow at the moment.

Good morning from Yuzawa. It's all go at the moment!

The snow yesterday morning didn't really amount to much.

Kagura is reporting no new snowfall overnight, but it has started snowing this morning and has started to stick.

It's snowing again. 9cm at our Yuzawa measuring point at 8am with a bit less than that out to the north in Ishiuchi.
