Good morning from Yuzawa.

Fine weather and warmth yesterday and lots of cloud this morning. Still feels fairly bright though and a few breaks in the cloud. We are expecting some rain though later on today and overnight - perhaps heavy at times. Hopefully that will mostly happen overnight.

From today just Naeba, GALA Yuzawa and Kagura remain open.

But... with some strong winds forecast, GALA Yuzawa is actually going to be closed for the day today. The Tashiro Area of Kagura is also closed along with the top Kagura Number 5 romance lift in the main area.
