Posted on Sunday 23rd December 2012 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.


A bit surprising perhaps but the sun is out over Shiga Kogen and all is calm. A calm before a storm, perhaps? Hopefully. It should be snowing tonight and into tomorrow and it is still forecast to be a decent snowfall as well. So we can expect clouds to move in today.


I'll let you know how that goes tomorrow, which is a national holiday in Japan by the way...
