Summary
Rain is expected today mainly along the Pacific coast of Japan, particularly in Kyushu and Shikoku. Northern Japan and the Japan Sea side will remain clear and dry, providing a contrast to the wet conditions in the south.
A low-pressure system that caused widespread rain has moved east, but lingering moisture will result in persistent cloud cover and intermittent rain on the Pacific side throughout the day. This weather pattern is likely to continue affecting the region.
Temperatures in western and eastern Japan are forecasted to be around 20°C, though the Pacific side may feel cooler due to limited sunshine. Sapporo's temperature is expected to drop to 9°C, indicating a significant chill in the northern areas.
Tomorrow is expected to be mostly sunny, providing a brief respite from the rain. However, rain is likely to return on Sunday, spreading from western Japan to eastern regions by night, with potential rain in Tohoku on Monday.
