Light to moderate snow is falling this morning here in Shiga Kogen. More in places than others and we're not expecting anything major today, but it just seems to enjoy snowing over Shiga Kogen this season. And we like it too!

For those of you fed up with the snowfall: first of all, don't be silly (!); and then secondly you might want to be here tomorrow and Thursday as it looks like we can expect clearer and sunny skies. Bit warmer too, though we should be returning to colder temperatures by Saturday and snow currently forecast for over the weekend.
