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


Lots more fresh snowfall this morning to report to you... good quality stuff too.


It is still falling now this morning so continues to pile up. The official snow depths as often is the case seem very... not enough!


Let's look at the forecast:


Clearer skies expected tomorrow and perhaps Wednesday and into Thursday too. It will not be quite as cold as it has been but fingers crossed still remain very cold.


We should be back to snow into Thursday and heavy snow is currently on the forecast for Friday night and Saturday.


The last week or so with the regular and often decent snowfall has really changed things.


All good. :)
