It looks like the warmth ahead of the season will continue. Especially this week, the maximum temperature is expected to rise to around 20 degrees Celsius in western Japan and eastern Japan. While the cherry blossom buds are growing, we need to be careful about disasters caused by snowmelt and the scattering of pollen.
Week 1 6th to 12th Weather changes in short cycles
The next point is temperature. Warmth ahead of the season is expected to continue nationwide. Especially this week, the maximum temperature is expected to rise to around 20 degrees Celsius from Kyushu to Kanto. Let’s take a closer look.
Tomorrow 6th (Monday), the area around Japan is expected to be covered by a high pressure system that spreads widely from east to west. It will be sunny over a wide area of the country. However, the Kanto region will be in a trough between two high pressure systems, and it is likely to rain mainly in the morning. You will need an umbrella when you go out.
The day after tomorrow, the 7th (Tuesday), the weather in the Kanto region will recover and the whole country will be sunny. This fine weather is likely to continue until the 8th (Wednesday).
On the 9th (Thursday), a trough of atmospheric pressure will advance from the west, rain will begin to fall from Kyushu, and at night, the area of rain is expected to spread to the Tokai. In addition, a low pressure system will form in the Sea of Japan and approach Tohoku and Hokkaido. On the 10th (Friday), it will rain from Hokkaido to Tohoku and Hokuriku. It’s snowing in the high altitudes, but it looks like it’s going to rain a lot in the plains.
On the 11th (Saturday), the rain in Hokkaido and Tohoku will continue until the morning, and the weather will recover during the day. It looks like it will be sunny from Kanto to Kyushu.
On the 12th (Sun), the weather will change quickly as it seems to be characteristic of spring weather. The next trough is approaching from the west, and the weather is likely to go downhill in Kyushu.
warmth of spring
Both the maximum and minimum temperatures will be above average on many days, and from the 8th (Wednesday) onwards, the maximum temperature will rise to around 20°C from Kanto to Kyushu. Hokuriku and Tohoku are expected to reach 15 degrees Celsius or higher, and Hokkaido is expected to approach 10 degrees Celsius. It will be as warm as in April in each region.
Looking at the temperature forecast in the sky, the 0°C line moves northward to the vicinity of Hokkaido at an altitude of around 1500m. The temperature in Sapporo at this time of year is about -10°C, so it is expected to be nearly 10°C higher.
With this season’s preemptive warmth, the thaw will progress in areas where a lot of snow remains. Watch out for avalanches, falling snow from roofs, and rising rivers. In addition, you don’t need a jacket during the day, but the mornings and evenings are warm for this time of year, but the temperature drops to single digits. It’s a good idea to wear clothes that are easy to put on and take off.
2nd week 13th to 18th Spring storm?
From the 13th (Monday) to the 14th (Tuesday), be careful of rain and wind. A front passing near Japan and a low pressure system over the Sea of Japan will develop and move northward, so there is a possibility of a spring storm. Warm and moist air will flow towards this front and low pressure, and there will be places where the rainfall will intensify, thunderstorms, and sideways rain. The forecast is still subject to change, but please pay attention to future information.
From the 15th (Wednesday) onwards, Kyushu to Kanto will be covered by high pressure, and sunny weather will continue. A lot of pollen is likely to fly on the 15th (Wednesday) after the rain. The peak of pollen dispersal is expected to be long this year, so please continue to be careful. In Hokuriku, Tohoku, and Hokkaido, there will be days when it rains and snows due to the short-period passage of troughs.
Will the news of the cherry blossoms reach us?
The temperature will settle down compared to the first week, but it will be a mid-March temperature. The maximum temperature is expected to be around 15°C from Kyushu to Kanto, slightly over 10°C in Hokuriku and Tohoku, and around 5°C in Hokkaido.
According to the latest cherry blossom forecast announced by the Japan Weather Association on March 2nd, the first cherry blossoms in Japan will bloom on the 14th (Tuesday) in Fukuoka and Kochi, and on the 18th (Saturday) in Tokyo. . Even compared to an average year, this year’s news of cherry blossoms may arrive nationwide earlier than usual.
