Independent snow and weather reporting from the Shiga Kogen region of Nagano

Snowfall at base this season 461cm

Posted on Thursday 25th February 2016 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.


It almost feels like mid winter!


Some good snow falling here this morning and there's just under 15cm of fresh light snow on the ground.


Yesterday calmed down and we ended up with a fine day. But it was back to snow and this morning nice big snowflakes are still falling.


Like I said it feels like mid winter, oh yes. Please continue.


Regular snow (perhaps on and off) is forecast for the coming days and through into early next week so we can look forward to a decent end to the month of February. Could we be in for a good last third of the season?
