Hello readers,

Residents of Hamada, Japan, brace yourselves! The weather forecast for the next few days paints a picture of winter's harsh grip with significant snowfall and chilling temperatures. Here's what you can expect for Hamada over the next three days.

Day 1: Tuesday, February 04, 2025

Expect a frigid day with a maximum temperature hovering around -1°C (31°F) and a minimum of the same. A significant snowfall is anticipated throughout the day, with snow likely falling continuously, leading to poor visibility and potentially hazardous conditions on roads. A blizzard warning is in effect, with wind speeds reaching up to 40 km/h (25 mph), which will make the wind chill feel as cold as -9°C (17°F).

The sun will rise at 7:08 AM and will take a bow by 5:44 PM. With over 7 hours of daylight, it might not seem bright, but don't count on seeing the sun. In fact, there's a 100% chance of snow throughout the day, coupled with 91% cloud cover.

Day 2: Wednesday, February 05, 2025

The next day isn't looking any better. Temperatures might slightly improve, reaching up to 1°C (34°F), but the snow won't relent. Expect continuous blizzard conditions, particularly during the morning. Visibility will remain poor, often dropping to near zero, and blowing snow will further complicate struggles outdoors. Wind gusts could reach up to 53 km/h (33 mph) making it feel colder. The sun will again rise around 7:07 AM and set at 5:45 PM, adding just a bit more daylight as the moon transitions into its First Quarter phase.

Day 3: Thursday, February 06, 2025

Finally, on Thursday, temperatures will barely hit 1°C (34°F) with lows of -1°C (30°F) expected. The overall conditions should show slight improvement in terms of snowfall, with only about 0.2 cm expected this day. However, the snow's transition from heavy to light will still keep blizzard conditions in the forecast, and visibility may still be an issue, especially during morning hours.
