While there is no new overnight snow to report today it looks like it will be another great day to be out carving some turns.

The only thing you need to know this morning is BLUEBIRD.

There was a dusting of about 2cm overnight and the day started with low cloud, very flat light and cold temperatures.

Sunday was a cracker of a day with 15cm of fresh snow at village level and even more at higher elevations.

Furano got slammed with 15-20cm+ of snow last night, quite the welcome sight to wake up to for those of you headed out on the mountain today.

We're off to a chilly start this morning. Clear skies and calm winds led to overnight lows around -24.

The weather is looking good for today so don't delay and get out there now.

Light snow started to fall yesterday evening and has continued through the night.

The day started off overcast with low light making the dips and bumps in the ground difficult to see.

Happy New Year from Furano! If you didn't get too festive last night you are probably already on the lifts making first tracks for 2013 in the new snow that fell yesterday and overnight.

Well if you were in the resort over the weekend you will have experienced the extremes of the good and not so good.

It's currently -3 and snowing outside, but the big story today is the wind whipping around out there.

It was an absolutely gorgeous blue-sky day today.

The grooming team have done a great job overnight and the corduroy patterns running down the mountain look very inviting for those able to make it up for a few runs early in the day.
