Today, the 28th, it’s over 20 degrees Celsius in central Tokyo. March starts like April, but the Doll’s Festival on the 3rd is like midwinter.
Today, the 28th (Saturday), it was sunny from Kanto to Kyushu, and the maximum temperature in central Tokyo was 21.7℃, the second time this year that it exceeded 20℃. Tomorrow, March will start with sunny skies across the country, with Kyushu and Kanto areas continuing to experience the same conditions as April. On the 3rd (Tuesday), the Doll’s Festival will bring cold rain in many places, and central Tokyo will be in the middle of winter with forecasts of 9 degrees Celsius during the day. You need to be careful about the temperature difference.
Heart of Tokyo exceeds 20℃ for the second time this year
In addition, the snow and rain in northern Japan eventually subsided, and the temperature in Sendai was 16.3℃ (same as mid-April) and in Sapporo 6.8℃ (expected to be late March), higher than normal.
The start of March will be sunny nationwide and the weather will be similar to April.
Tomorrow, March 1st (Sunday), high pressure will rise and it will be sunny across most of the country (there are places in Hokkaido where it is snowing, such as central Hokkaido, and it is raining in Okinawa). In the evenings between Kyushu and Kanto, the maximum temperature in many places will reach around 20℃, and the strong winds will continue to subside, similar to those in April, making it comfortable to wear light jackets during the day. In the Kanto to Kyushu areas, take all possible measures to ensure that pollen flies as much as possible. As the snow continues to melt in Hokuriku and northern Japan, you need to be careful about avalanches and falling snow.

On the 2nd (Monday), a low pressure system moved eastward from the west, and the weather in western Japan turned downhill. On the 3rd (Tuesday), a low pressure system will move eastward along the southern coast of Honshu, and the region will be affected by the “south coast low pressure system,” which may bring some snow to the Kanto region. There will be heavy rain in western and eastern Japan, and there is a risk of wet snow in the mountains of Yamanashi, Nagano, and northern Kanto. A wedge of cold air is expected to form, and depending on the situation, there may be snow mixed in even in flat areas. Please check the latest weather information frequently.
This Saturday and Sunday will be as warm as April, but winter coats are still available. Please take care of your health as there is a large difference in temperature each day.
