Posted on Monday 7th January 2019 This is an archived report. The latest Geto Kogen Now report can be found here.
Yesterday there was a bit of clearer skies and there was a bit of snow.
And this morning I have 22cm of fresh on the ground and it is snowing. Limited visibility for now and a bit dark but it might brighten up and the snow is actually forecast to ease off but not totally go away. The snow clouds seem to like it over Geto so maybe we'll get a few more days of snow before things conditions get much clearer.
Still waiting on the other tree run areas to open...
