Today, the 8th (Wednesday: the first day of winter), even though the air will change and there will be plenty of sunshine, the maximum temperature in central Tokyo is expected to be 22°C (the maximum temperature by noon was 20.9°C). Although it will be more than 5℃ lower than yesterday, the 7th (Tuesday), it is still regarding 4℃ higher than normal, regarding the same as mid-October. During the day, you can comfortably wear a long-sleeved shirt. However, once the sun goes down, it gets really cold. Make sure to wear layers such as jackets.
The season quickly moves forward following the rain on the 10th (Friday)
Tomorrow, the 9th (Thursday), will be sunny across the country, but it will start raining in Kyushu, including Fukuoka, late at night.
On the 10th (Friday), it will rain across the country, and this rain is expected to be followed by the strongest cold air of the season. Cold air, which can cause snow in the plains, is expected to hit Hokkaido and northern Tohoku, and cold air, which can cause snow in the high mountains, is expected to move south from southern Tohoku to the San’in area.
In Hokkaido and the northern Tohoku region, there is snow on the plains, and there is likely to be news of the first snow in places like Sapporo (normal year for Sapporo’s first snow: November 1st).
From the night of the 12th (Sunday) to the 13th (Monday), cold air, which is likely to cause snow in the mountains, is expected to move southward to the south of Honshu. In southern Tohoku, Hokuriku, and northern Kanto, there will be snow mainly in high altitude areas, and there is a possibility of snow accumulation on mountain passes. Since this is the first snow of the season, be sure to have winter tires and other equipment when crossing the mountain pass at night. Be careful not to overdo it when climbing or viewing autumn leaves.
It’s cold in early winter this weekend
Starting this weekend, the weather will suddenly become colder across the country.
In central Tokyo, the temperature will barely rise from the morning of the 11th (Saturday), with both the minimum and maximum temperatures expected to be 15°C. The lowest temperature on Sunday the 12th is expected to be 9℃, the first time this season it will drop below 10℃. Mornings will get even colder next week, with temperatures dropping to 7℃ on the 14th (Tuesday). In Nagoya, Osaka, and Fukuoka, the minimum temperature is expected to drop to around 7℃ next week.

Temperature and clothing guidelines
This is a guideline for temperature and clothing.
If the temperature is over 25 degrees Celsius, you’ll want a short-sleeved shirt, and if it’s below 20 degrees Celsius, you’ll want a long-sleeved shirt. If the temperature drops below 15℃, you will need to wear something like a cardigan, and if it drops below 10℃, you will need to wear a coat.
Tomorrow, the 9th (Thursday), temperatures will rise to around 25 degrees Celsius in places like Osaka and Fukuoka, so it looks like we’ll be wearing short sleeves for the last time this year during the day. However, the temperature drops to around 13℃ in the morning and evening, so please wear short sleeves and a layer of clothing.
In Nagoya and Tokyo, you can put away your short sleeves. In preparation for the cold weather starting this weekend, prepare for winter clothes such as sweaters and coats.
In Hokuriku and southern Tohoku, winter clothing such as down coats is likely to be necessary.
