Posted on Sunday 20th March 2022 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.
Not a whole lot of snow overnight but there is a fresh layer of white. Kumanoyu and Yakebitaiyama are both reporting 5cm of fresh snowfall and my number is the same.
It's still snowing now too. I was just over at Okushiga and it was actually snowing quite heavily for a moment over there.
It feels cold out there too, so this is a bit of a mini winter blast. Perhaps the last one? There's not much snow lined up on forecasts for the coming week but it's also going to keep quite cold and no bluebird-type days.
