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

Snowfall at base this season 3cm

Posted on Thursday 26th November 2015 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.


Welcome back to the Shiga Kogen Now reports for the 2015-2016 season.


A bit of snowfall in higher areas of Shiga Kogen the night before last along with the coldest conditions of the season so far - feeling somewhat winter-like (at last).


And then some more snow to report this morning - about 3cm or so on the ground actually. Still, it is not as cold as we would like it to be and the snow is not exactly dry powder but of course good to see a thin layer of white around us now.


It's around 2 degrees now as we approach 10am and the sun has appeared from behind the clearing clouds.


Clouds back by tonight though and snowfall expected again. Just how much remains to be seen of course.


The Kumanoyu area has been busy trying to supplement the small amounts of natural snow with machine-made snow, but it's unclear if things might be able to happen for this weekend.


Come on snow... we're waiting!
