Today, it was sunny in northern Japan in the morning and the temperature rose, reaching 27.9c in Sapporo and 30.1c in Ikutawara, Engaru Town, Hokkaido, making it a midsummer day in some parts of Hokkaido.
The highest temperature in the country was observed in Sannohe, Sannohe-cho, Aomori Prefecture, at 31.2c, the highest temperature ever recorded for April.

Tomorrow, the air in northern Japan will change, and the temperature will likely drop in many places compared to today. Temperatures will continue to rise in many places in eastern and western Japan, and it will be necessary to take measures against the heat.



Northern Japan is warm In a complete change from today's airy weather, cold air is flowing in, and many places in Hokkaido and northern Tohoku are likely to experience temperatures below 20 degrees Celsius. In Sapporo, the temperature will only rise to 15c tomorrow, and the temperature difference is likely to be large. Please be careful not to get sick.

On the other hand, sunlight will reach a wide area from southern Tohoku to Kyushu, and temperatures are expected to rise during the day.
The predicted maximum temperature is 27c in Sendai (similar to late July), Tokyo 28c (similar to early July), and Osaka 28c (similar to mid-June), which is expected to be unseasonably warm in various places. In Nagoya, it is expected to be a midsummer day with temperatures expected to reach 30 degrees Celsius (same as early July).

2024/04/27 09:03

Today, the 27th (Saturday), the first day of a three-day holiday, temperatures are expected to rise significantly in northern Japan. The temperature is predicted to be 1500m above the ground, and air with a temperature of 12c or higher will flow all the way to Hokkaido. A temperature of 12 degrees Celsius at 1,500 meters above the ground means that there will be some places on the ground where the temperature will be over 25 degrees Celsius.



Today's sunny northern Japan So, in Sapporo it is 27c (like late July), Obihiro 28c (like midsummer), Akita 24c (like mid-June), Morioka 27c (like mid-July), and Sendai 23c (like mid-June). It looks like it will be unseasonably hot in many places.

I think many people will be going out from today as it is Golden Week, but please take precautions against heat stroke not only outdoors but also indoors, and be sure to stay hydrated and take adequate breaks.



Tomorrow the 28th On Sunday, cold air will flow in from the Sea of Japan, causing temperatures to drop significantly in some parts of Hokkaido.
