Independent snow and weather reporting from the Furano region of Hokkaido
New snowfall at base 1cm
Snowfall at base this season 497cm
Posted on Wednesday 27th February 2019 This is an archived report. The latest Furano Now report can be found here.
There is a light dusting of snow across the village, and although only 1cm at base level, I would expect around 5cm at the top of the resort. It is a colder start to the day, currently -9c, and temperatures will rise up to around -2c by midday. Plenty of cloudy lies above but that is expected to clear and it should be a sunny afternoon. There is no significant snow forecast for the rest of the week.
