Good morning from Shiga Kogen and there's more snow to report this morning.
4cm outside my place and I am hearing people talk of anything up to 10cm this morning. And the snow isn't due to let up just yet either, perhaps continuing into tomorrow.
It is snowing now but it's quite bright and visibility - here in the Maruike area at least - is pretty good.
There is 1 week left for all of the resort area of Shiga Kogen to remain open. Apparently, the ones planning to close would do so even if we got 50cm in one night. Hardly likely of course, I wonder if that did actually happen they might be tempted!
