Yesterday was sweltering as temperatures rose well above freezing and the sun shone down.

The snowstorm that come in yesterday has passed and this morning there is a buzz around the village as people do some serious snow removal from their driveways.

It is snowing moderately with large flakes coming down. Looking at my thermometer it is showing +1c.

There was 3cm of new snow at base this morning and around 10cm higher up on the mountain.

It is another very pleasant morning in the resort with a nice clear view of the ski hill looking back from Furano city.

It is a wow of a morning in Furano with nice clear sky above. There has been a 3cm dusting of new snow, just enough to keep the slopes nice and fresh.

It is a very nice morning and we have received a respectable 7cm of new snow in the village which will equate to 10-15cm on the resort I think.

Yesterday was a very cold day and today the chilly weather continues. It was -24c in Furano a short time ago and will head up to a high of around -10c by lunch time.

It is a nice calm morning and there is plenty of early morning action around the village with people heading off on day trips to ski the other great mountains nearby.

Yesterday was characterized by strong winds throughout the day.

It is a warm morning and just below zero at -1c. It will get colder, rather than warmer, as the day rolls on.

Winds were severe overnight and continued for hours. For now the wind seems to have passed by and left a pretty nice morning.

There is a light to moderate wind blowing and it is snowing very lightly.

A wind front arrived early this morning and it is gusting strongly around the town.
