Posted on Wednesday 23rd January 2013 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.
The snow continued yesterday and we pretty much avoided rain up here and even got a few more cm out of it in places. This morning the skies are clearer and while we have a thin cloud layer the sun is shining through it at the moment and it is a bright morning. Most importantly it's much colder than it was yesterday and we are back down to something more like the kind of temperatures that we are used to in January.
More sun tomorrow before the snow clouds move in and bring us snow on Friday, is what the most recent forecast says. Sounds good to me. Lots of snow please.
Nighta operations planned for tonight at the following resort areas:
