Niigata Prefecture is likely to experience very stormy weather due to the low pressure system accompanying the front and the winter-like pressure distribution.
The Niigata Local Meteorological Observatory issued warnings and alerts for strong winds in Kaetsu and Sado from the early evening of the 16th to the 17th, and in Niigata Prefecture from the early evening of the 15th to the 16th, warning of landslides, flooding of low-lying land, and rising river waters. We urge you to be careful and vigilant.
Furthermore, from the 17th to the 18th, it looks like we’ll see the first significant snowfall of the season.

Low pressure and winter-like pressure patterns are strengthening…will there be “heavy stormy weather” through the 17th?

According to the Niigata Local Meteorological Observatory, due to the effects of low pressure and a front, strong rain will fall in some places in Niigata Prefecture through the 16th, and if the rain clouds develop or become stagnant than expected, there is a risk of warning-level heavy rain. That means there is.

Additionally, from the night of the 16th to the 17th, winter-like pressure patterns are expected to gradually become stronger around Japan. As a result, extremely strong winds are expected to blow over the sea in Niigata Prefecture, and the sea is expected to become turbulent in some places. If the low pressure system develops more than expected or the winter-like pressure pattern becomes stronger, there is a risk of strong winds and an area with warning-level high waves may spread.

The Niigata Local Meteorological Observatory is warning of high waves in Kaetsu and Sado on the 17th, and is calling for caution and vigilance once morest strong winds from early on the night of the 16th until the 17th. Additionally, in Niigata Prefecture, people should be on guard once morest landslides, flooding of low-lying areas, and rising river waters from early on the night of the 15th to the 16th.
