Just a few cm of snowfall to report this morning and it is snowing now as I write this. Kagura say 5cm of fresh up top.
Wind is affecting things a bit early this morning with the Tashiro part of Kagura closed (and also the Dragondola) today. Looks like Mitsumata Ropeway is open and lifts up until the Kagura Number 1 pair lift operating. Other than that, as normal.
Not as cold today but from tomorrow that getting to be almost warm spell is due. Sunny tomorrow and then really getting too mild for comfort on Friday into Saturday. Rain may well be on the cards.
