Posted on Sunday 31st January 2016 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.
Yesterday was a relatively 'warm' one (for Shiga Kogen) with lots of fog around at times.
By evening time it was colder and clearer but... it just... doesn't feel like late January weather. Hard to believe that come tomorrow we are already into February.
Earlier on this morning snow was falling and there's a cm or two around base areas and it is colder.
It has gradually been clearing but having said that, light snow is still falling right now here in Maruike area.... but the sun is shining down as well! It looks and feels like it might clear up, but who knows.
The forecast says that snow clouds might be with us today and tomorrow to be followed by clearer weather around Tuesday and Wednesday.
