Posted on Thursday 1st February 2024 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.


Good morning from Shiga Kogen.


A very mild day yesterday and mild temperatures overnight.


I believe it is raining down in the valleys but it is snowing lightly up here in Shiga Kogen... just a dusting on the ground in places so far.


It's quite windy out there too.


Temps are forecast to drop hour by hour today and hopefully they will stay lower, even if we get some sun tomorrow (as predicted on some forecasts).
