Record-breaking rainy seasons have been announced in various places, but the end of the rainy season is expected to be about the same as normal, which means that the period at risk of heavy rain may be prolonged.

Precipitation in July is

expected to be


"normal or high" on the Sea of ​​Japan side of northern and eastern


Japan, and "almost normal" on the Pacific side of eastern Japan, western Japan, and Okinawa / Amami.



Precipitation in August is expected to be "almost normal" nationwide.

Why is the rainy season prolonged?

The Japan Meteorological Agency explained that the time after the rainy season was earlier than normal in the April forecast, but it will be about the same as normal in this forecast.



The reason is that the Japan Meteorological Agency has less cumulonimbus clouds around the Philippines than last month's forecast, and the westerly northward movement affected by this is expected to be normal, so the Baiu front has also changed to a stagnation tendency. ..

Risk of heavy rain “Prepare now”

Prolonged rainy season may increase the risk of heavy rain.



From now on, the Japan Meteorological Agency is calling for you to check the risk of disasters in your place of residence on hazard maps and prepare for it.
