Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata New snowfall at base 46cm Snowfall at base this season 1383cm Posted on Wednesday 19th February 2025 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . "Furi sugi!" my neighbor called out to me—"Too much snow!" I had to agree, especially after dealing with someone else's stuck car, a miniature avalanche coming off a massive pile of snow (which I previously created with my snow machine), three blown sheer pins on said snow thrower and all kinds of delaying factors. Which means I am reporting late, but full info from all the resorts for a change! Hopefully lifts are running well, although Akakura Onsen does note that Yodel No. 5, the steep lift up to the highest point (known by locals and Maruyama, since it is a "round mountain") is closed. There wasn't as much snow as I expected, actually; could be that with the wind it's hard to get a good figure. Seemed like a lot during the hours of morning plowing, but it's also pretty dense. At the same time, it's also not well consolidated; stand on the snow and your leg is going to go down a long way. Stay safe, people, and enjoy the powder!

Independent snow and weather reporting from the Shiga Kogen region of Nagano New snowfall at base 35cm Snowfall at base this season 682cm Posted on Wednesday 19th February 2025 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here . Another large amount of snow since yesterday after some clearer periods during the daytime. It is really snowing heavily right now. Very early morning Yakebitaiyama was reporting 40cm; the tourism office is giving a big range of numbers (20cm at Hasuike and 70cm at Okushiga Kogen). Very limited visibility and... well, you've got to be committed to the cause to be out in these conditions! The heavy snow/wind conditions might generally have eased off by Friday bit there is still a chance that there is some snow over the weekend. It will surely be calmer, though. "How can there be 70cm of snowfall and the official snow depth number remains unchanged", someone asks. It seems unlikely, right? I think you need to ask the ski areas about that!

Independent snow and weather reporting from the Madarao region of Nagano New snowfall at base 38cm Snowfall at base this season 851cm Weather overview Snow Wind NW Temperature - Visibility Varied Posted on Wednesday 19th February 2025 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here . Good morning from a cold and snowy Madarao. The ski area is (only) reporting 20cm of fresh snowfall this morning, but my measurement is 38cm (and the webcam 'stick' seems to be similar to me). So, lots of fresh snow again and it's still coming down. We can expect snow clouds to be across the region until the weekend, but perhaps it will be calmer and less snow by then. We are enjoying much snowier February than last year and if we get much more we'll be starting to threaten the 'best ever' numbers of recent years for February in 2013 and 2022.

The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . The wind and snow came as expected, right during the lunch hour yesterday. Kind of fun to be on the forested runs that are a Myoko feature and have the trees get stripped of all their snow by a big blast of wind. It was still really windy when I woke up early to start the day's plowing, but it calmed down before sunrise. It is dense snow, shaped and piled up by that wind. The kind of snow where it can be hard to move through boot-high powder unless you have a pretty good angle to the slope. It's calmed down at the moment, but we're supposed to get more wind today and especially later tomorrow, along with more snowfall. Lifts remain vexing, readers. Akakura Onsen's Yodel No. 1 did not run at all yesterday, even though the website said it was running. Today Akakan's Champion No. 3, the lift linking Onsen with Akakan, is also closed.

The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here . We're back to the snow and cold! Or, we were. Right now, there the clouds have cleared a bit and there's even a bit of blue sky. But it should be snowing again before too long and it's expected to continue through the week. Happo-one is reporting 50cm of fresh snowfall up at Kurobishi (sugoi!) but 0cm a few hundred meters away at Usagidaira (huh?!). And 15cm at the top of the Riesen quad lift. Curious. On the Hakuba Valley official website, Tsugaike is reporting 42cm of fresh snowfall and the 'season-so-far' total for that ski area is still stuck at 269cm. Funny! Anyway, some funky numbers aside we have more fresh snow to enjoy with more on the way.
