Yellow sand has been flying into Okinawa and Kyushu from the night of yesterday, the 23rd to the morning of today, the 24th. In Naha, yellow sand was observed in November for the first time in 18 years. It’s been a long time since I’ve had autumn yellow sand.

Autumn yellow sand for the first time in 4 years in Japan

Yellow sand is flying near Japan. Yellow dust was observed in Fukuoka on the night of yesterday, the 23rd, and in Naha on the morning of today, the 24th. This is the first time in four years that yellow dust was observed in November at 11 observation points in Japan, since 2019 (Fukuoka on the 1st and 2nd). Additionally, this is the first time in 18 years that yellow dust was observed in Naha in November, since 2005.

A cold front is expected to pass near Japan today, and the atmospheric pressure is expected to gradually become winter-like, with high pressure in the west and low pressure in the east. It is believed that the yellow dust was brought in due to the overhang of high pressure from the continent.

What will be the future impact?

By around noon today, the 24th, the yellow sand will pass to the eastern sea, and no yellow sand is expected near Japan following the evening.

Visibility (outlook) will not worsen in the future, and there is not expected to be any major impact, but there is a possibility that small amounts of yellow dust may adhere to cars and laundry. If you are concerned, it may be better to dry your laundry in your room.
