The low pressure system that is currently raining in the Kanto region is expected to develop rapidly in the future towards Hokkaido, and a very strong cold air will flow from Wednesday the 17th to Thursday the 18th.
Northern Japan and the Sea of Japan side are wary of heavy snowfall. It is expected that there will be times when it will snow in Fukuoka and other areas, and snow clouds will flow into Nagoya and other areas.
In addition, winter-type pressure distribution creates strong winds, which can affect transportation, such as some railways, highways, and aviation.
Even in Hokuriku, Tokai, and western Japan, driving delays and delays can occur from Wednesday 17th to Thursday 18th.
If you plan to travel by train, check the website of each route company for the latest information.
In addition, there is concern about the impact of Wednesday 17 to Thursday 18 in Hokuriku, Tokai, Chugoku-Shikoku and Kyushu.
When driving a car in an area where snow or strong winds are expected, refrain from driving by force and be sure to prepare winter gear not only on highways and roads in general.
Check the information provided by the highway company to see if there are any restrictions.
Even flights to and from Tokyo can be interrupted by strong winds.
If you are planning to travel by plane, check the latest weather information and pay attention to the flight information provided by the airline.
