Posted on Friday 29th March 2024 This is an archived report. The latest Furano Now report can be found here.
It is not a good day ahead in terms of weather. Currently there is a moderate wind blowing around base. The forecast is for rain but at the moment it is delivering sleet and there is a 3cm build up of slushy snow in the resort area. Visibility looks variable between limited at the top to reasonable lower down. The temperature is now +3c and the high of +7c will be mid afternoon. At the time of posting this report the resort has not confirmed expected lift operations for the day but my guess would be the Ropeway will be on hold due to wind - best to check with the resort directly for updates.
