Independent snow and weather reporting from the Shiga Kogen region of Nagano


New snowfall at base 3cm
Snowfall at base this season 207cm

Posted on Saturday 11th January 2014 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.


After a clearing of the skies in the afternoon yesterday, light snow is falling again this morning in Shiga Kogen. Temperatures are keeping nice and low.


3 day weekend and one of the busiest of the season, traditionally. Probably tomorrow will be the busiest of the three days as lots of people making their way up to the area this morning. From what I can see around the area though lift lines don't seem too bad mid morning.


A mix of light snow, cloud and perhaps sometimes sun is forecast for the next few days.
