Well, after that impressive start yesterday morning we didn't get a whole lot more during the day.


There's still some snow on the roads and hanging on the trees and with a bit of sunshine this morning everywhere is looking very picturesque. Today and tomorrow are forecast to be on the milder side during the daytime.


From Wednesday, temps are going to drop back down to mid-winter mode and hopefully there'll be more snow too.


Five ski areas in Shiga Kogen are part open.
