Good morning from Shiga Kogen.
I am seeing a bunch of different weather conditions going on this morning. Just a short while ago I was up at Kumanoyu and the sun was breaking through the clouds. Back here in Hasuike it's fairly bright and visibility is pretty good - I can see Higashitateyama over in the distance - but some light snow is falling.
There's some fresh snow on the ground. Kumanoyu are reporting about 20cm. I am measuring 12cm for the report. Will be interesting to see if we get any more snow out of today or if it clears up. Tomorrow morning might well start off sunny, if local forecasts are correct (with a return to some more snow around Thursday).
Should be a good morning, and as we are back to a normal weekday it should be less busy than this past weekend.
