More fine weather here in Shiga Kogen this Sunday morning, but it's about to change from tomorrow.

If that forecast is right, it will be snowing by tomorrow morning and snowfall possible through until around Wednesday. Yes please, I say!

Going to be colder too so don't be fooled by the warmth of the last few days; that layer will be needed once again.
