Posted on Wednesday 6th February 2013 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.
Well, after a colder start to the day yesterday, it's a milder picture this morning and around -3 degrees here in the Maruike area as of 9am. The good news though is that... it is snowing. Light earlier on but it's actually coming down quite nicely now as I sit here writing this report. Not much accummulation as of yet perhaps a cm or two in places but hopefully if the snow continues like this we can get a nice new layer today. Visibility looks generally ok out there.
Tomorrow might be a sunny one so if we can get a decent amount of snow today, fab conditions.
Nighta operations planned for tonight at the following resort areas:
Ichinose Family
