Yesterday was the first snowfall on the Pacific side like Kagoshima, Miyazaki and Tokushima, and also in Osaka.
As of this morning, there are many places where the Pacific Ocean side is also snowy, while on the Sea of Japan side there are places where there is a snowstorm due to strong winds.
Strict caution is required because there is a risk of traffic obstruction due to snowfall (stagnation of large-scale vehicles due to traffic jams), poor visibility due to snowstorms, collapse of cabins, etc., and power outages due to snowfall. Make sure you have enough security when removing snow.
Therefore, JPCZ (Japan Sea Cold Zone Air Group Convergence Zone) is formed by the strong winds colliding with each other, and the developed snow clouds especially pass from Sanin to the northern part of Kinki.
The animated snow clouds associated with JPCZ are expected to flow intermittently around noon today.
Furthermore, in Yamori, Akita Prefecture, the maximum instantaneous wind speed was 26.4 m / s at 5 o’clock, and in Niigata Prefecture, it was observed 24.3 m / s at 4 o’clock. However, it exists.
Beware of increased snowfall and impaired visibility due to snowstorms.
The amount of snow is particularly high along the Hokuriku Mountains, northern Nagano, and northern Gunma, which recorded record heavy snowfalls in mid-December.
Be aware of the weather when the snow is calm and make sure there is sufficient safety before removing the snow.
In a situation where it snows heavily in a short period of time, if a car gets stuck, it will lead to a large-scale stall. Avoid moving by car until the beginning of the year as much as possible, and even if unavoidable, install winter tires, anti-skid, equipment when stuck, etc., and check the latest weather information, road traffic information and information operation carefully. Be careful.
Additionally, a large amount of wet snow can affect power transmission facilities and cause power outages. In case heating is not available, it seems good to take measures such as preparing heating and heating appliances other than electricity, and preparing a flashlight.
