Posted on Thursday 14th March 2013 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.
The fingers crossed thing must have worked because this morning there's 5-10cm of new snow on the ground. Much colder too after that really balmy day we had yesterday which is something of a relief - almost felt like summer was round the corner yesterday!
It's still snowing now as well so come on let's have a bit more before it's due to ease off and make way for clearer conditions tonight.
Expect a sunny and warmer day tomorrow as spring returns.
Nighta operations planned for tonight at the following resort areas:
