Ou-yuki!
Heavy snow this morning to report with a very nice cold new layer of fluffy dry snow on the ground and across the mountains.
Swirling winds are affecting some lifts around the Shiga Kogen resorts and I suppose it's unfortunately for lots of visitors that it is over the weekend, but the good refresh is most welcome.
The wind is making it difficult to put a number on the snow but some resorts adding up to 30cm.
Snow should ease today and by Tuesday we're expecting some clearer skies.
