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


New snowfall at base 3cm
Snowfall at base this season 337cm

Posted on Saturday 1st February 2014 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.


Clear and sunny this morning but getting more overcast with it mid morning. Something of a contrast with yesterday. We are looking at a few days now of warmer conditions. Tomorrow possibly even into positive numbers.


They should be right back down into minus double digits by Tuesday though and a decent chance of some good snowfall to follow.


I would expect today to be busier than tomorrow as people might have been put off by the forecasts for a possibly wet day tomorrow. It seems we might avoid that now but it's all up and down at the moment and hard to read.
