Snow ho ho in Furano today.
Nice falls, more than 10cm in town, probably twice that up top. Kitanomine Gondola is the 10th and final lift to open and it is spinning today but not for passengers at this stage. Feels imminent. We will let you know. Warmish, about -3 in town, no wind. Fat stunning dry light glorious lovely floaty Central Hokkaido snow falling since I woke up at 6am.
Happy Chrimbo today if it's your bag, and if it isn't, happy winter solstice! If you're in the Southern Hemisphere, happy heatwave and stay safe if there are fires where you are.
