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

Posted on Sunday 29th December 2013 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.


It's an easy one today as the sun is shining and there are bright blue skies over Shiga Kogen. It was a very cold start to the day with some areas noting a temperature of -12 degrees around 8am. It has warmed up but still cold outside. Lovely day though.


Shouldn't be as cold tomorrow but the forecast is similar. Worth noting that the forecast for today was not the bluebird we have. Next snowfall still probably over New Year.
