We didn't do so bad yesterday. Yes, it did rain - even up at Kagura later in the day - but for the most part it wasn't heavy rain. I went out for a walk late last night and it wasn't raining then so hopefully we didn't get too much overnight. This morning though is a different story and some heavy rain falling early on. The good news is that that the local forecasts seem to be telling us that it won't last all day and things should hopefully clear up by afternoon. Let's hope so.

Tomorrow and Thursday look set to be generally cloudy with some clearing at times. After that, we might actually get to see more snowfall on Friday into Saturday - on upper slopes at least. Keep your eye on that.
