Posted on Wednesday 8th February 2017 This is an archived report. The latest Furano Now report can be found here.
It was good to see some new snowfall on the ground this morning even if it was on the light side, totaling 3cm. During the morning there were flakes of snow slowly falling down from the sky, but the precipitation just wasn't enough to add any further accumulation. There is some mist and cloud rolling a third of the way down the mountain on the Kitanomine side and half way down on the Furano Zone side, so there may be a little flat light around the tops. The sun should appear tomorrow and from the forecast it looks like there will be little if any wind.
