Independent snow and weather reporting from the Shiga Kogen region of Nagano


New snowfall at base 5cm
Snowfall at base this season 576cm

Posted on Thursday 19th February 2015 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.


Some fresh snow overnight, at least a few cm or so and there was about 5cm on the top of my car to brush off.


Not the best of conditions yesterday with some heavy and wet conditions so the fresh layer should help this morning.


It has eased off now and there's even some blue sky to see as well up there and a bit of sunshine. Forecast is for snow though so.. bring it on please!
