Posted on Sunday 8th February 2026 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.


Hello from Shiga Kogen.


It is another very cold morning.


We have around 10cm or so in base areas and it is bright, though we do expect some snow today and the chance of some windy conditions later on.


Looking ahead, milder conditions and perhaps some sun is expected around Tuesday.


It will probably be another busy day but some fine conditions to enjoy.
