Good morning. Is it Friday already?!


Light snow falling in Shiga Kogen this morning. It's not expected to bring us new cm or last long. Wind isn't an issue and visibility is generally pretty good at the moment.


Tonight should be clear skies leading us into a cold and clearer start to the day tomorrow morning.
