Climate in Japan:

Japan has a temperate maritime monsoon climate, which is mild and humid all year round. One of the main features of climate is that the temperature changes obviously in four seasons. Japan spans about 25 latitudes from north to south. It is influenced by Siberian monsoon in winter and Pacific monsoon in summer. Although Japan is small, it has four different climate characteristics.

Hokkaido belongs to the sub-arctic climate type, with an average annual temperature of only 9.45℃ and an average annual precipitation of about1205 mm. From northeastern Honshu to Kyushu, the area near the Pacific Ocean belongs to temperate zone, and it is very hot in summer under the influence of monsoon from the Pacific Ocean.

The wet and cold monsoon blowing from the mainland is blocked by the central Alps and other mountains in central Japan, resulting in a lot of rain and snow on the side facing the Sea of Japan. The southwest island of Okinawa Prefecture has a subtropical climate, with an annual average temperature of over 22℃ and a precipitation of over 2000 mm..
