Rain on and off yesterday but it's still on this morning unfortunately with some wet roads around town. It is forecast to clear up this morning though leaving us with just a cloudy day and a forecast high temp of around 12 degrees - so a bit warmer than it has been the last few.


Kagura resort are telling us about another 3cm of so of fresh snow on their upper slopes this morning.


It will of course be busy today as we are now into the second chunk of the Golden Week holidays.


Clearer and warmer from tomorrow.
