Today, the 16th (Saturday), we need to be careful of sudden changes in the weather in the followingnoon.

An autumn rain front extends from the Sea of ​​Japan to the southern Tohoku region. Warm, humid air flows toward the front, making atmospheric conditions extremely unstable.

From Kyushu to Kanto-Koshin, rain clouds and thunderclouds will develop in places in the followingnoon, mainly along the mountains. It looks like there will be some places where the weather will turn from sunny to pouring rain. Because the winds in the sky that sweep away rain clouds are weak, once it starts raining, it can continue to rain in similar places, resulting in more rainfall. There will be “very heavy rain” with localized roads quickly flooding.

In the Kanto region, where heavy rain and thunderstorms hit the plains around central Tokyo yesterday, today’s rain is mainly along the mountains in the north and west, but please be careful of sudden rain.

Due to the influence of the autumn rain front in Tohoku, there are likely to be areas of heavy rain and thunderstorms mainly in the south into the evening.

Signs of torrential rain

There are three main phenomena that can be a precursor to torrential rain (localized heavy rain).
① “Pitch black clouds are approaching.”
Developed cumulonimbus clouds that bring regarding torrential rain appear completely black. One of the signs of torrential rain is that black clouds appear to be moving at high speed, or that the sky suddenly turns dark even though it was sunny.
② “I heard the sound of thunder.”
If you hear a rumbling sound, thunderclouds are approaching. Also, seeing lightning is one of the signs of torrential rain.
③ “A cold wind suddenly blew.”
From the developed cumulonimbus clouds, cold wind blows down along with raindrops. You also need to pay attention to changes in the wind.

If you feel any of these signs, immediately evacuate to a safe place. Also, please be aware that there is a possibility of torrential rain when a lightning warning is issued or when you hear the words “atmospheric conditions are unstable” or “the weather is changing suddenly” in the weather forecast.
