God morgon skidåkare och snowboardåkare,
Greetings in Swedish today in honor of a Swedish family visiting Furano today.
Well, a bit of snow overnight. Supposed to start snowing after lunch, but so is the wind, so I wouldn't be surprised if the delicate Gondola closes. Forecast to be fairly windy again tomorrow, so be on the lookout for a closure.
That's all I have to say about that.
Think snow.
