In Monbetsu City, drift ice was visually observed on the 19th, marking the first day of drift ice. The observation was 17 days earlier than last year and 5 days earlier than normal.
The earliest observation so far was on January 3, 1967, and the latest observation was on February 14, 1989.
Note that from 1956 to 2007, observation was carried out by the Abashiri Local Meteorological Observatory’s Monbetsu Weather Station, but since 2008, Monbetsu Weather Station has been integrated into the Abashiri Local Meteorological Observatory, and Monbetsu City has been conducting its own observations at Okhotsk Tower.
First day of drift ice: The day when drift ice that had drifted from waters out of sight was first seen on the sea surface within sight.
Future movement of drift ice
Tomorrow, the 20th, there will be a winter-like atmospheric pressure pattern, with winds continuing from the north, and the drift ice may get even closer. Thereafter, a low pressure system will approach Hokkaido from the 21st to the 24th, and around the 25th, there is a risk that the pressure will become winter-like and winds from the north will become stronger on the Sea of Okhotsk side. Due to these effects, the movement of drift ice may increase after the 22nd. For ships, please pay attention to the latest weather information.
