There are concerns regarding the effects of deteriorating road conditions, such as slip accidents. Please drive carefully and be careful of snow accumulating on trees and power lines.
The rain and snow will stop by the morning of the 16th (Saturday) in most places, so it looks like the year-end cleaning will be well underway. However, the rain will start falling once more in the evening, and strong cold air will move in.
On the 17th (Sunday), winter-like atmospheric pressure patterns will become stronger, and snow is likely to fall mainly on the Sea of Japan side.

During this period, you need to be careful regarding how the snow falls and how cold it is.
From the 21st (Thursday) to the 22nd (Friday), the winter-like atmospheric pressure pattern will become stronger, and the amount of snow will increase mainly on the Sea of Japan side.

From Saturday the 23rd onwards, it will continue to snow intermittently in northern Tohoku and the Japan Sea side.

Sufficient care must be taken to avoid accidents during snow removal work.
Although there are many sunny days in the southern Tohoku region, especially around Sendai, there are likely to be days when snow clouds roll in. Even though the sun is shining, the air is cold and you won’t be without your winter coat.
