Looks like great weather is with us here in Furano to start off the day. It is nice and calm with no wind in the village. While it is mostly cloudy there is quite a bit of blue sky as well, and the morning sun is coming through. Expect the slopes to be in great condition after overnight grooming. There is a dusting of new snow at town level so the courses should have received a 2-3cm freshen up. Later in the day light snow is predicted.
