The typhoon has not developed much after passing around Okinawa, and is expected to continue moving north slowly, reaching the East China Sea on the 20th (Wednesday) and the west of Kyushu on the 21st (Thursday).
From Saturday the 23rd, it will mostly stagnate west of Kyushu.
We believe that the chances of landing in Kyushu are low, but in Kyushu, warm, humid air flows around the typhoon, and rain clouds may develop.
Beware of sudden heavy rain and thunderstorms.
Also, it is expected to change to a tropical cyclone at 9am on the 23rd (Saturday).

Dangerous heat, mainly in western Japan. Be careful of sudden changes in the weather in the afternoon inland and mountains in the west to eastern Japan.


2025/08/16 07:25

TOPICS IMG

The area around Honshu is covered by tall high pressure systems, and today, the 16th, many areas will be sunny, mainly in western and northern Japan.
In western Japan, strong sunlight will shine brightly, and many days are expected to be extremely hot at 35 C or higher. The temperature rises to 38 C in Yamaguchi City, Kurume City (Fukuoka Prefecture), and Hita City (Oita Prefecture), making it a dangerous heat. Take full precautions against heat stroke.

In the afternoon, the atmosphere conditions are expected to be unstable, mainly in western and eastern Japan. Looking at today's lightning probability forecast, the probability is high, especially inland and mountains in western Japan and eastern Japan, so you'll likely need to be careful of sudden changes in the weather. Locally, there is a risk of heavy rain or thunderstorms with more than 30 mm of lightning per hour, and extremely heavy rain over 50 mm of lightning per hour. In particular, if you are going to leisure activities on mountains or rivers, be careful of changes in the sky and sudden changes in the weather.
Also, rain clouds may flow into the plains, so it's a good idea to carry a folding umbrella when you go out, even if it's sunny.








Latest month forecast: The intense heat that continues through September: Western and Eastern Japan are again trending in rainy weather


2025/08/15 20:06

TOPICS IMG

On Thursday, the Japan Meteorological Agency announced the latest one-month forecast, which will provide an estimate of the weather for the next month.

image

According to the prediction results from the numerical forecast model, the Pacific high pressure system is predicted to rise from the southeastern sea in Japan to the east and western Japan. North and Eastern Japan are subject to a period of mobility high pressure, while North, East and West Japan are likely to be covered by high pressure throughout the period.
On the other hand, since the Sea of Okhotsk side is a low-pressure area, it is expected to be affected periodically by low pressure and front lines, mainly on the Sea of Japan side of North Japan.
The average temperature around 1500m above the sky is high nationwide, and the area around Honshu is likely to be covered in warm air throughout the period.

image

In western and eastern Japan, high pressure will continue to be more likely to be covered in high pressure, so there will be more sunny days and the precipitation will be lower than normal. The weather in northern Japan is likely to change cyclically due to the effects of low pressure and fronts, but there will be many sunny days throughout the period, and precipitation will likely be on the same level as normal or less than normal.
From August 7th to 12th, due to the stagnant front and low pressure system, linear precipitation occurred in Kyushu and Hokuriku, causing record-breaking heavy rain. It looks like there will be a tendency for rain again in the future. Use water carefully on a daily basis.


The average temperature one month away will be higher than normal nationwide from Hokkaido to Okinawa. The Japan Meteorological Agency has released an "Early Weather Information on High Temperatures" stating that the average five-day temperature from around the 20th is likely to be significantly higher than normal. This information is intended to encourage caution at least six days in advance when the temperature is likely to rise that is only once every 10 years.

There is a possibility that there will be a record-breaking hot day in the future, and nighttime temperatures will continue to be less likely to drop. Be sure to take full precautions against heat stroke, day and night. You also need to be careful about managing your crops.

#Warning for sudden weather Not only in the mountains, but also in the plains

The other day, due to the influence of the front, there was heavy rain around Honshu.
However, due to the growing influence of the Pacific High Pressure over the next week, the front line will be unclear near Honshu.
We expect sunny days to continue, mainly in western and eastern Japan.

However, tomorrow, the 16th (Saturday), clouds will likely spread on the Pacific Ocean side of the west and eastern Japan due to the influence of moist air.
In the Tokai and Kanto, due to the influence of valleys of atmospheric pressure, there are also areas where rain will fall in the plains.
There will be heavy rain and extremely heavy rain inland and along mountains.

From the next day, onwards, in western and eastern Japan, you should be careful of sudden changes in the weather even if it's sunny.
The air condition is likely to become unstable due to rising temperatures during the day or the effects of humid air.
In the afternoon, rain clouds tend to develop mainly inland areas and along mountains, so when leisure activities in the mountains, be careful of changes in the sky and keep safety first.
Also, rain clouds can flow into the plains, so it's safe to carry an umbrella that can be used in both sunny and sunny areas.

#Dangerous heat that exceeds body temperature is expected to return to 38 degrees Celsius in Gifu, Nagoya and Kofu
In the last few days, the heat has settled down for a while due to rain from the front.
However, the dangerous heat that exceeds the temperature has returned for the next week.
Again, there are more places where the highest temperature is over 35 C, and there will be some places where the temperature is dangerously high, not only in western Japan but also in eastern Japan, where the temperature is dangerously high, especially inland areas.
We expect the highest temperature to be in Gifu tomorrow, the 16th (Saturday), 37c in Kumagaya tomorrow, and 38c in Monday, the 18th (Mon) in Gifu, Nagoya, and Kofu.
In areas where a heatstroke warning alert has been issued, try to spend your time in a cooler environment with air conditioning indoors, taking frequent breaks, hydrate and salt.
This is a summer vacation, and it is a time when three generations of people go out more, but elderly people, infants, and young children are prone to heat stroke, so be careful and people around you should also talk to them.
Even in areas where heatstroke warning alerts have not been announced, when leisure activities outdoors, be sure to take thorough measures against heatstroke, such as drinking plenty of hydration, using hats and parasols, and taking breaks in cool places.
