In a blink of an eye, has it entered the traditional 24 solar terms? Heavy snow? Season. With the early exertion of cold air, many places have ushered in a cooling tide, and it has snowed in many places. Recently, due to the cold wave and the uplift caused by superimposed topography, there has been strong snowfall in the coastal areas of the Sea of Japan and the hilly and mountainous areas on the windward slope. Among them, in the mountainous area at the junction of Gunma Prefecture and Niigata Prefecture in Japan, the thickness of snow has exceeded 2 meters. According to the forecast of the US Meteorological Agency, there will be snow in this area in the future, and the snow may reach three meters.

The weather in autumn is the most comfortable, isn't it? High in autumn and fat in horse? Said. From early September to early October, it is called autumn frost season in Japan. This season is the most frequent period of typhoons, often accompanied by heavy rains, which will cause various geological hazards. It is winter in Japan from November 2th to February 2th of the following year. Japan's eastern coast, that is, Japan, has more snowfall, short sunshine and humid air in winter, while Japan on the other side has less rain, snow, dryness and sunny weather. Because there are rainy season and autumn frost season, it is also said that there are actually six seasons in Japan. Second, the regional differences are obvious

people in the industry also pointed out that because Japan is in the mid-latitude westerly belt and its weather system moves from west to east, the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China are actually the upper reaches of Japan. Maybe that's it? The mountains and rivers are exotic, and the wind and the moon are the same? The source of it. In fact, from the above, we can find that the winter in Japan is indeed relatively wet and cold, which is quite similar to the climate in the south of the Yangtze River.
