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

Snowfall at base this season 104cm

Posted on Monday 26th December 2022 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.


It looked like we might have missed out on the storm yesterday during the day, but it came in overnight and gave us more snow.


This morning it is snowing and there is still a gusty wind blowing snow about. Certainly outside my place anyway! There's varying amounts of new snow as well - partly due to just where it has fallen and also the wind factor. But I'm guessing generally 10-20cm and perhaps more in places.


The Sun Valley quad is up and running now.


While the Shiga Kogen area is not yet fully open and fully connected, there's lots to play in now.
