We had a break in the snowfall yesterday for a while but it's back in style this morning.

Lots of fresh snow. 50cm, more or less depending on where you are and if the wind has got to it.

I am measuring 19cm of fresh snow this morning. It is snowing now and coming down at quite the pace.

Moderate snowfall as we approach 9am and the kind that feels like it is going to be building up nicely.

It is cloudy at the moment but there is a thin layer of fresh snow to report since yesterday once those clouds moved in later in the day.

A mix of weather yesterday that included that rain. It is not something that we expect here in January.

I'm happy to report that the decent snowfall I mentioned might happen in my last report has happened.

Blue sky and white snow contrast. Beautiful.

Just a little snow to report this morning with fine light snow falling at the moment.

Sunshine this morning here in Shiga Kogen.

That early rain and sleet of yesterday is behind us now - thankfully - and we actually have a bit more snow on the ground this morning.

I was hoping we would avoid rain up here in Shiga Kogen, but unfortunately that isn't wasn't case. It was raining overnight.

A bit of snowfall since my report yesterday, the snow eased off and we enjoyed some clearer weather conditions for a while.

It is snowing this morning, and I have measured 8cm to add to the reports.
