Posted on Sunday 17th January 2021 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.
Some kinda odd weather yesterday with those heavy looking clouds yesterday morning moving in and rain turning to snow.
This morning Yakebitaiyama are reporting 15cm of fresh snow and Kumanoyu are reporting 5cm. Varying amounts across the wide Shiga Kogen area, and I have measured 12cm.
It does feel colder this morning and come Tuesday it should be colder still. Forecasts show some decent snow due around Monday night into Tuesday, though we might start tomorrow with clearer skies once again.
