Cold air similar to early December reaches northern Japan; strong winds and intermittent snow expected along the Sea of Japan coast
Published
Cold air similar to that of early December is flowing into northern Japan. According to weather forecasts, a strong winter-type pressure pattern is expected to continue until the 8th. As cold days are likely to continue, please dress warmly when going outside.
In Hokkaido and the Tohoku region, very strong winds are expected to blow, particularly along the Sea of Japan coast. Strong winds can make outdoor work, cycling, and driving dangerous. Early preparation is important, such as putting away items that could be blown away.
Snow is also expected to fall intermittently. In areas along the Sea of Japan coast, snow may repeatedly start and stop. Roads may become slippery and transportation may be delayed, so it is reassuring to check the latest weather and transportation information before heading out.
As the winter-type pressure pattern continues, the effects of cold, strong winds, and snow are expected to persist mainly in northern Japan. Please keep an eye on future changes in the weather, and take care of your health and safety measures carefully.
