Posted on Sunday 11th February 2018 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.


Good morning from Shiga Kogen


A little (wet) snow overnight and while it had eased off earlier on, it is snowing once again now and coming down at quite a rate actually here in Hasuike as of 9:10am. A look around webcams show some varying conditions at the moment, but hopefully we will see some more snow during the day today.


It is still relatively mild - though keeping under zero - but much colder temperatures are due tomorrow, hopefully along with continue snowfall.


Limited visibility in places at the moment.
