The Snow Continues to fall

Snow fall has continued throughout the night and almost 1m of snow has accumalated in town on top of what was already there so in some places there are 2m of snow. Just out of town to Kagura the road has snowalls which are about 2.5m high and with a lot of street signs covered up, the snow is set to continue throughtout the weekend and even in till next week, hopefully this won't be the last "big" snowfall for the season.

And so it begins again

Today we've had well over 50cm of snow, overnight there was around 30cm on top of the cars and its has been snowing all day except for a brief period of sun at around 10:00am. Its become quiet in Yuzawa after the Chinese New Year period but will pick up once again once its becomes Friday night again. The snow is set to continue throughout the week till atleast next Monday but not at the same intesity, there is another good 40-60cm out of this system, a good top up for all the resorts.

Snow is still falling

My Predicted snowfall of 20-30cm was a little short of what fell, Kagura reported 60cm at the top with the village getting a good 40cm of snow, it is still dumping down and there should be atleast another 10-20cm by tonight. Last night I took a "short" journey to Muikamachi (the next town over) and the short drive ended up being very long and hard going and at one point when stopping at a traffic light the snow on the roof of the car covered the whole windscreen. Anyone coming up this weekend is set for some really good snow but please be careful if you`re driving or even walking down the road. Have a good weekend.
