A long contrail stretches across the sky over central Tokyo
Around noon today, the 19th, a long contrail could be seen in the sky of central Tokyo.
Contrails are a phenomenon in which when hot exhaust gas from a jet aircraft is released into the cool, humid air above, the water vapor in the exhaust gas turns into small water droplets, forming clouds.
When such contrails do not disappear, it is said to be a sign that the weather is going downhill. The reason why contrails don’t disappear is because there is a lot of humid air in the sky, making it easy for clouds to form.
Rain and snow on Saturday and Sunday
From here on, the weather is going downhill in Kanto and Koshin as well.
Due to the influence of the southern coast low pressure system, snow and rain are expected to fall in Nagano Prefecture from around noon on the 20th (Saturday), and in Yamanashi Prefecture from the evening. In the Kanto region, rain and snow clouds will begin to form early in the evening in the southern part of the country, and at night it will rain over wide areas of the plains, and snow will fall along the mountains.
Rain and snow will continue into the 21st (Sunday), and there is a risk of heavy snow along the mountains. As of now, there is a high chance of rain in Tokyo’s 23 wards.
The snow and rain caused by the south coast cyclone may change depending on the cyclone’s course, development, and temperature. Please pay attention to the latest information.
