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


New snowfall at base 37cm
Snowfall at base this season 286cm

Posted on Thursday 28th December 2017 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.


Lots more snow during the day yesterday along with wind and some pretty hairy conditions at times.


This morning the snow is still falling and it is still windy, but perhaps less so than yesterday and the forecasts do tell us to expect conditions to calm down somewhat during the day today.


For those coming for the weekend - there might even be some sunshine. Which should make for a great few days with all of this fresh snow to enjoy.


Don't worry though; it's set to remain cold and there's more snow lined up on the forecast from Monday.


Nice!
