2026/11/11 07:22

As of 6:00 a.m. today, Wednesday the 11th, Typhoon No. 32 (Champaka) is moving east-northeast at a speed of 45 km/h. It is currently located east of Chichijima Island and is maintaining a strong intensity.

Typhoon No. 32 - Wednesday, the 11th, 6:00 a.m.
------------------------------------
Center Location: East of Chichijima Island
Size: -
Intensity: -
Movement: East-northeast at 45 km/h
Central Pressure: 975 hPa
Maximum Sustained Wind Speed: 35 m/s (near the center)
Maximum Instantaneous Wind Speed: 50 m/s
------------------------------------




On Chichijima Island in the Ogasawara chain, a maximum instantaneous wind speed of 22.6 m/s was recorded as of 6:00 a.m. today, Wednesday the 11th, indicating that winds are intensifying. It is possible that even stronger winds are occurring on Hahajima Island, which is closer to the center of the typhoon.
Although the storm warning previously issued for the Ogasawara Islands was lifted early this morning (Wednesday, the 11th), a strong wind advisory remains in effect; caution regarding high winds is advised throughout the remainder of the day.

Outlook
Typhoon No. 32 is expected to move further away to the east of Japan and transition into an extratropical cyclone far to the east of the country by tomorrow, Thursday the 12th.
Even after it becomes an extratropical cyclone, the pressure gradient between it and a migratory high-pressure system over Honshu will increase. This may lead to continued high waves in the waters east of Japan, so please remain cautious and alert to the risk of high waves.

[Weekly Weather] Mostly sunny from tomorrow, the 11th, onwards; rain expected across a wide area around the 15th.

2026/11/10 17:26

Here is the weather forecast for the coming week.
Today, Tuesday the 10th, clouds spread across a wide area, with rain or snow falling in many places-primarily during the morning. However, the region is gradually coming under the influence of a high-pressure system extending from the Asian continent, and the weather is beginning to clear, starting from western Japan.

Tomorrow, Wednesday the 11th, the area around Japan will increasingly fall under the influence of this high-pressure system, bringing clear skies to many locations.
Generally fair weather is expected to continue through around Saturday the 14th. From around Sunday the 15th, however, the passage of a low-pressure system and a front is likely to cause a deterioration in weather conditions nationwide.



Tomorrow, Wednesday the 11th, the region around Japan will come under the influence of a high-pressure system. While some areas along the Sea of ??Japan-from Hokkaido through the Tohoku region and into the Hokuriku region-may see lingering rain or snow during the morning, the overall trend is toward clearing skies. Although snow may continue into the afternoon in parts of northern Hokkaido, most other areas will be generally clear, providing a good opportunity to hang laundry outside.

Meanwhile, in the Ogasawara Islands, Typhoon No. 32 is expected to make its closest approach between tonight and the early hours of Wednesday the 11th, bringing rough weather. Please exercise extreme caution regarding violent winds late tonight, and remain alert for potential landslides caused by heavy rain through the morning of Wednesday the 11th.
At sea, conditions are expected to become very rough with swells. Please remain on high alert for high waves accompanied by swells through the evening of Wednesday the 11th.



From the day after tomorrow, the 12th (Thursday), through the 13th (Friday), the area around Honshu is expected to be under the influence of a high-pressure system. While clouds may spread across parts of the Sea of ??Japan side on the 13th (Friday), other areas will likely see sunny intervals.

On the 14th (Saturday), a low-pressure system will approach from the west, and the weather in Kyushu is expected to deteriorate. Most other regions will remain generally sunny.

On the 15th (Sunday), a low-pressure system accompanied by a front is expected to move eastward across Japan. Clouds will spread nationwide, and rain is likely. Near the front and the low-pressure system, rainfall may intensify, and winds could also pick up; you will definitely need a sturdy umbrella.

On the 16th (Monday), following the passage of the low-pressure system, a "west-high, east-low" pressure pattern will develop, bringing rain or snow to the Sea of ??Japan side.

On the 17th (Tuesday), another low-pressure system will move eastward from the Sea of ??Japan, bringing widespread rain or snow.

Since the weather is likely to become unstable during the latter part of this period, it is recommended that you complete tasks such as hanging laundry outside, finishing any seasonal clothing changes, or planning outings during the first half of the period.




For the coming week, daily high temperatures will generally be around or above the seasonal average.
Today, Tuesday the 10th, saw temperatures typical of December in northern Japan-due to an influx of cold air-and in the Kanto region, where cold rain fell. However, temperatures are expected to rise again, particularly on days with clear skies.
Please note that on clear days, there will be a significant difference in temperature between the daytime and the morning or evening hours. Be mindful when choosing your attire; it is advisable to wear layers-such as a warm jacket or an outer garment-that can be easily put on or taken off.

The weather will improve today, the 10th; tomorrow, the 11th, much of the region is expected to be sunny as a high-pressure system moves in.

2026/11/10 15:19

Here is the weather forecast for Japan.
Currently, a very strong Typhoon No. 32 is moving eastward to the south of Japan, with a frontal line extending to its north.
Meanwhile, a high-pressure system is extending from the Asian continent, creating a pressure pattern characterized by higher pressure to the west and lower pressure to the east across Japan.

At present, rain or snow is falling in parts of the Hokuriku region and along the Sea of ??Japan side of Hokkaido and the Tohoku region. Rain is also occurring in the southern Kanto region and Shizuoka Prefecture. In western Japan-excluding Kyushu-much of the area is covered by clouds.



As a high-pressure system gradually moves over the region, the weather is expected to improve. Rain in the southern Kanto region and Shizuoka Prefecture is forecast to taper off by this evening, so please remember to take your umbrella with you when you head home.
However, rain or snow may continue in parts of the Hokuriku region and along the Sea of ??Japan side of Hokkaido and the Tohoku region through tomorrow, Wednesday the 11th.

In the Ogasawara Islands, Typhoon No. 32 is expected to make its closest approach between tonight and the early hours of tomorrow, Wednesday the 11th, bringing rough weather. Please remain on high alert for violent winds late tonight, and stay cautious regarding the risk of landslides caused by heavy rain through the morning of Wednesday the 11th.
At sea, conditions are expected to become very rough with swells. Please exercise caution regarding high waves accompanied by swells through the evening of Wednesday the 11th.

/>

Tomorrow, Wednesday the 11th, the area around Honshu is expected to be under the influence of a high-pressure system.
During the morning, some areas along the Sea of ??Japan-from Hokkaido through the Tohoku region and into the Hokuriku region-may see rain or snow. In the northern part of Hokkaido, snow may continue into the afternoon. Elsewhere, however, it will generally be sunny, making it a good opportunity to hang laundry outside.
Daily high temperatures will be higher than today's in many places, reaching levels typical for this time of year.



Looking ahead, the weather is expected to be mostly sunny as the region remains under the influence of high pressure. However, on Sunday the 15th and Tuesday the 17th, low-pressure systems and fronts will pass over Japan, likely bringing rain or snow across the country.



On sunny days, there will be a significant temperature difference between the morning/evening and the daytime. Please choose your clothing carefully-consider wearing a warm outer layer or items that are easy to put on and take off.

Additionally, the weather forecast for the Kanto region is also available in a video presented by an AI weather caster; please take a look.
