It is expected that the weather will be rough around the Sea of ​​Japan in northern Japan from the 31st to the 2nd, so it is necessary to watch out for the effects of heavy snowstorms on traffic and storms.

According to the Japan Meteorological Agency, the cyclone near Sakhalin is evolving to the northeast while developing, and the front running from the cyclone is expected to pass from northern Japan to eastern Japan.

For this reason, in northern Japan, the air condition is expected to be very unstable before noon on the 31st, and it is necessary to pay attention to severe gusts such as lightning strikes and tornadoes, and hail.

After that, the winter pressure distribution will increase around Japan, and cold air below minus 15 degrees will flow around 1500 meters above northern Japan.

For this reason, in northern Japan, the wind will intensify over two days, and it is expected that a very strong wind will be blown with snow mainly from the afternoon on the 31st to the morning of the 1st with snow, mainly on the Sea of ​​Japan side.

The maximum wind speed on the 31st and 1st is expected to be 20 meters in Hokkaido and Tohoku, and the maximum instantaneous wind speed is expected to be 35 meters in Hokkaido and 30 meters in Tohoku.

Winds are expected to be strong in Hokkaido for two days, with maximum wind speeds of 15 to 19 meters and maximum instantaneous wind speeds of 20 to 35 meters.

The Japan Meteorological Agency has called for vigilance against storms and the effects of heavy snowstorms and snowstorms on traffic.
