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.

Yesterday afternoon and evening there was a significant snow front come through and it has deposited 11cm of powder at village level.

It is currently snowing lightly and the flakes are nice big bulky ones, and will be a pleasure to ski on this morning.

Quite a mild Saturday as temperatures in town nudge 0c. There is low cloud which is protecting us from the sun and preventing melt.

There are some light snow flurries coming down but it looks like these could ease up anytime soon.

A very cold morning it is here in the village with the temperature now showing -10c. It will warm up and be around -4c by lunchtime.

There was another nice topping up of snow overnight. That's another 6cm on top of the already great conditions.

It is a brilliant morning with clear skies affording views across Furano town to the spectacular Daisetsuzan mountain range in the distance.
