Independent snow and weather reporting from the Furano region of Hokkaido
New snowfall at base 2cm
Snowfall at base this season 261cm
Posted on Saturday 27th December 2025 This is an archived report. The latest Furano Now report can be found here.
Properly cold today, with a nice bite in the air.
Despite the "Severe Snow Warning" issued yesterday afternoon, we ended up with only 2 cm at the base, and 5 cm on top. Someone clearly has not paid their bill to Mother Nature.
As always, the groomers should be fine today. A few of the guides are venturing off-piste today to assess conditions. I'll go ahead and predict that it's still too early, but I'll let you know what they say.
Think Snow.
