春の陽気と午後の雨。濡れた路面に注意

Kamui Ski Links currently experiences mild, cloudy conditions this morning. The summit at 735m reports 17 degrees Celsius with a gentle wind of 0.78 m/s, making the felt temperature similar to the ambient temperature. The base area is 2.5 degrees warmer. Temperatures are expected to rise further, reaching 19.6 degrees Celsius at the summit by noon. While the ground is currently dry, a significant change in weather is anticipated for the afternoon.

Light drizzle is forecast to begin around 3 PM, transitioning to full rain with a 100% probability after 6 PM. Given Kamui Ski Links' predominantly gentle slopes, trails are prone to becoming wet and potentially muddy with precipitation, especially in areas with poor drainage. Those enjoying the resort's 25 courses, including the longest 4km run, should plan their activities considering the afternoon rain.

For layering, a quick-drying base layer, a light mid-layer, and a waterproof-breathable rain jacket are essential. Despite the high temperatures, getting wet can quickly lead to hypothermia as body heat is lost. Temperatures will drop to 14.9 degrees Celsius after 6 PM, increasing this risk. Therefore, it is advisable to conclude outdoor activities early or ensure complete rain protection. While risks of strong winds or thunderstorms are low, always be mindful of the rapid weather changes characteristic of lower-elevation areas.
