Posted on Saturday 18th January 2014 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.


A very cold morning in Shiga Kogen.


This morning most of the clouds have cleared and we have mostly blue skies. Just a few clouds hanging on here and there. The sun is out and it's one of those cold but lovely mornings. Should be a good day.


Will be even better if we get some fresh snowfall. And it's due perhaps as early as this afternoon, then overnight. Could be a decent snowfall.


For now though enjoy the morning.
