Yuki!


Yes, it's snowing this morning here in Shiga Kogen. And we always like that. Only silly people wouldn't like that.


I'm calling it at 5cm so far and it is still falling. Pretty decent snow as well... great to see it and no doubt even greater to get out and slide down on it.


Snow is due for the day today and tonight as well and so I am hoping that tomorrow I will also be able to bring further snow news.


The snow clouds will probably finish up sometime tomorrow and then after that sunny weather is forecast around Wednesday and Thursday, when it will also get a bit warmer.


It's keeping cold today though so I am going to get out there and enjoy it.
