Morning from Shiga Kogen. The snow is back and it's falling at a fair pace just now after just lighter snow earlier.
Kumanoyu are not reporting any snowfall from this morning but that is probably because their report was at 7am. It is falling more now. Wonder if it will continue. We're being told it will, especially overnight tonight. Potential heavy snow. Sounds good that.
For the moment, generally limited visibility and relatively mild conditions with a north westerly wind. All lifts should be opening as scheduled.
