Good Morning Furano!!
It's snowing again, and all is right with the world...at least more than it was yesterday. It does the heart good to see it coming down. Nice and fluffy. Good temps.
The impending warm days have lowered their threat level to +2 and +3 C for the next two days, which is manageable in my book. Then down we drop off the charts with nighttime lows down to -17 C. Properly cold.
In news, the resort has opened the A3 run on the Furano side, providing a bit more expert access. A3 is never groomed, so have at it.
Be safe out there and give yourself a good berth when overtaking others. Recent spate of collisions.
Think snow.
