Well, unfortunately it's one of those few days in mid season when I have to report... rain.
Yes, it's raining, and even higher up as well apparently. With the warmer conditions and this rain we're having, I can't pretend to say that conditions will be particularly pleasing out there today. Perhaps some people will decide it's time for an onsen or a trip to see those cheeky monkeys over near Shiga Kogen. Then again, good exercise and perhaps less people might make it appealing. Take your choices!
It's due to remain mild for the day and into tomorrow with temperatures in the positive. We can just hope that the skies clear up somewhat and the rain stops. Clearer conditions are forecast for tomorrow.
The good news is that from around Friday, heavy snow should be falling with a return to wintery conditions so lets look forward to that.
