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


New snowfall at base 1cm
Snowfall at base this season 329cm

Posted on Wednesday 29th January 2014 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.


Just a thin dusting of snow overnight and this morning lovely blue skies over Shiga Kogen.


After a bit of a warm up yesterday it's a cold morning though we are expecting mild again tomorrow, to be followed by snow into Friday.


We seem to be up and down with temps at the moment and the forecasts are all a bit vague. Of course, what we like best is when it's clearly going to puke down over the area... though we don't seem to have any of that on the horizon at the moment.
