Posted on Sunday 18th December 2016 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.
It is a beautiful start to the day here in Shiga Kogen.
Blue skies and sunshine and we might have more of this over the next couple of days.
Clouds due back mid week along with gradually warmer temperatures too. It might even rain up here before it starts snowing again late week, which isn't something that we like the sound of. We need to get past this upcoming warmer spell though so let's get it out of the way. And lots of snow in time for Christmas please.
Forgive me for not being able to update the below info this morning, I am having some serious connection problems and hope at least to be able to post this report. I don't expect any major changes though.
