Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata New snowfall at base 45cm Snowfall at base this season 986cm Posted on Thursday 24th January 2019 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . A lot of lightening and thunder last night, a sign that snow would be falling. And it did, and more than expected (again). Lots of blowing and drifting which also made the snow pretty dense. Could be some tough skiing offpiste except where it's steep (and this stuff could sluff, too, so be careful in the chutes and valleys!). Excellent base now, though, with lots of places reaching 3 meters (exactly what I have outside on the big pole I set up to measure the total).

Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata New snowfall at base 83cm Snowfall at base this season 873cm Posted on Monday 21st January 2019 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . Lots of snow today. Lots of wind last night, too, so for the first time this season I'm a little hesitant about new snow depth. My house was closed in by drifts; my spot where I check snow depths is more sheltered from the worst winds, but even there two different points gave slightly different results (but close), so I taking the lesser of the two. Which is still 83cm. The snow is still coming down hard, and the crews are still trying to get everything passable. I know I started at 6am, and just finished around 9:30 (snowthrowing and running a loader and shoveling until typing is a pain....). Keeps us honest.

The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . I don't want visitors to think this is normal, but the sun is out again. I keep telling people that there are many Januarys where there is almost no sun. But it is a nice morning out there, and snow is coming very soon (I heard from a new foreign hotel owner that he was shocked, last year there wasn't that much snow, his budget for diesel for plowing is already used up.....). Ya gotta be tough in snow country. Just a little fresh snow up to this morning, but good big snowflake crystals that look great, and feel even better under your P-Tex. Could be little warmer tomorrow morning as the freezing level moves up the mountain. But today looks like a great day, and not that crowded at the resorts. Of course, just like those sunless Januarys of the past, there was a time when there was a traffic jam every weekend morning up to Akakura... Showing my age today. Have a good one!

The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . A pretty nice snowfall overnight, with a total of 34cm of fresh on the ground this morning. Some pretty strong winds during the night, too, with some big drifting around my house (less at Akakan base, though). Could mean there are more cornices building up on the local ridgelines, for those who like to get up and away from the ski areas. The snow is still falling right now, but the barometer is rising, so maybe that sun that was predicted earlier might appear tomorrow (although it looks like the chances of some solid snowfall are also growing -- Yea!)

The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . Sunny this morning, but with a few clouds starting to drift in over the mountains. Sun is nice, of course, but snow comes from clouds, right? (And we locals like it best when it's blasting down, blindingly deep, soft underfoot....). But it is colder, and it was pretty cold last night. We matched yesterday's fall by this morning, too, maybe even slightly more than yesterday. Some settling overnight as the snow stopped and the stars came out. So once again we're waiting for another reset of the hill.

Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata New snowfall at base 22cm Snowfall at base this season 724cm Posted on Wednesday 16th January 2019 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . It was raining in the late afternoon and evening last night, but it's nice light powder today. And lots of it. I measured the snow pretty early and got a figure of 22cm, but it's been falling hard since then. We'll go with that initial figure, and give the next 24 hour amount tomorrow — but just know that it's going to keep falling and accumulating and getting better and better. It's nice light snow, too, on a settled base (the rain helped complete the firming up of the existing pack). A little gusting at moments, but generally we're seeing a light north wind at base level. Looks to be blowing pretty hard out in the ocean, typical for the times when we get heavy snow. The forecast is for the snow to taper off, but so far so steady.

The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . Sunny and cold after the big dump. After a big snow like that it almost seems like there's no more moisture left in the air to make clouds. Of which there are only a few right now. It was really cold for Myoko, too; the outside thermometer read -9° earlier, but the sun is supposed to warm things up considerably during the day. I hope it stays cold enough that the snow conditions remain good; OK, let's stick our collective neck out and predict that it will be a great day for getting out in the sun and sliding on great cold snow.

The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . We have been slammed. Buried. Ensconsed in snow. It was pretty windy through the night, so there was a lot of drifting. I sat inside while the team gallantly made it out to our study area. The official depth out there, in a non-drifted area, was 92cm (they also poked around our driveway, and found everything from 80 to one meter. So let's go with 92!). It's also really light, so people probably should be more than a little careful going offpiste. Sluffing is definitely a possibility, and those narrow valleys that are everywhere here would be a really bad place to slowly slide into. Lotte Arai is not running this morning at least; check their website before you go! (actually, they just opened Sanroku No. 1; more opening later?) Kyukamura Runrun is starting a little late, too.

Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata New snowfall at base 13cm Snowfall at base this season 1705cm Posted on Tuesday 9th April 2019 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . Wasn't sure when I'd update, but about 13cm of new snow at base level on April 8 deserves a mention. And we need to keep our total snowfall for the entire season accurate, right? SnowJapan's forecast got it right, but it was still weird to watch things get colder through the day, and the rain turn to snow. Pretty strong north winds are still blowing; a few minutes ago the wind really came in with some more new fall (thought it was just the snow in the trees and on the car blowing away, but it was in fact new flakes coming in horizontally. So we have the schizophrenic situation of sunny skies to the south (melting the snow off the roof) and gray skies, snow and wind from the north. Winter wants to fight its way back in; spring is holding firm in the south. But that wind might cause lift closures (meaning the gondola at Akakan, which would close the hill), some at Arai. We're now officially down to three operating areas, now with some fresh snow on top to make things pretty again. The snowpack was looking pretty grim there after the last rain (amazing what come up to the surface) so it's another nice day.
