Posted on Sunday 18th February 2018 This is an archived report. The latest Furano Now report can be found here.
Temperatures are very cold this morning and the highest we will get to in town is around -8c. As is very often the case with these kinds of temperatures, it is clear weather with blue sky abound. There is a constant light wind blowing and I would expect it to be a little stronger higher up on the mountain. Yesterday there was a decent amount of snow that accumulated through the day which measured 6cm in Kitanomine. Overall it looks like a great day out there.
Kitanomine zone open.
Furano zone open.
