There is also the risk of heavy snowfall in the Sanin and North Kinki regions, and the range of snow may extend to Nagoya, Hiroshima and Osaka.
Therefore, northern Japan and Hokuriku are wary of heavy snowfall and intermittent blizzards, especially on the Sea of Japan side. Especially around Hokuriku, a local wind collision called JPCZ is expected to occur and snow clouds continue to enter, and the amount of snowfall is expected to increase by 50 to 60 cm along the mountain.
Furthermore, snowfall is expected to increase by 30 to 40 cm on the Pacific side of Hokkaido, which is affected by low pressure.
The area of snow caused by cold air extends to the shadow of the mountains and north of Kinki, and although it is not as intense as in early January, there is a risk of heavy snowfall on the plains.
Clouds of snow cross the mountains, and it snows in Tokai, Kinki and Sanyo, and although it does not accumulate in urban areas such as Nagoya and Osaka, a slight stagnation is expected in the suburbs.
The peak of strong winds is during the day on Friday 29, especially on the coasts of Hokuriku and Tohoku, and the Izu Islands.
There is a risk that the maximum instantaneous wind speed will exceed 30 m / s in a wide area on the side of the Sea of Japan, and may exceed 20 m / s even in Tokyo Bay.
Heavy snow, blizzards, and even stronger winds can cause rail and aviation delays and suspensions, and road closures, which can affect logistics.
Also, pay attention to the effects of low temperatures caused by cold air, such as freezing of road surfaces and freezing of water pipes, and take precautions as soon as possible.
