[6th (Sat)]
There will be periods of sunshine, but clouds associated with a trough in atmospheric pressure are expected to pass over the Tokai region. There will be showers and snow in some places, mainly in Gifu Prefecture. The weather is likely to be changeable on the first day of the three-day weekend.

[7th (Sun) – 8th (Mon): Coming of Age Day]
A winter-like atmospheric pressure pattern is expected, and strong cold air is expected to flow in. Areas on the Pacific side will have long periods of sunshine, but occasional low clouds will roll in. There will also be periods of snow in the Nobi Plains, including Nagoya City, due to the northwesterly wind. In particular, snow clouds are expected to flow in during the nighttime hours when temperatures are low. Please keep an eye on future snowfall information as snow can accumulate quickly.

In the mountainous areas of Gifu Prefecture, snow is likely to fall from the 7th (Sunday) to the morning of the 8th (Monday), resulting in heavy snowfall. Areas where the snow has already melted are likely to see heavy snowfall again. There will also be snowfall in some areas, such as the mountainous areas of Mikawa in Aichi Prefecture and the mountainous areas of Mie Prefecture. If you are going out on a 3-day weekend, be sure to pay close attention to the road conditions leading to your destination.
Although this cold weather is temporary, we have had relatively pleasant days recently, so it looks like our bodies will be able to endure the severe cold. Please be careful not to get sick due to the temperature difference.

Weather for the week: Severe cold in the morning of the 9th (Tuesday)

The morning of Tuesday the 9th, after the holidays, will be bitterly cold. Plains areas in the Tokai region, such as Nagoya and Gifu, will experience sub-zero temperatures, and even more severe cold is expected in mountainous areas. You need to be careful about freezing water.
There will be many sunny days after the 9th (Tuesday), and there will be no worries about heavy snow in the mountainous areas of Gifu Prefecture. However, there will be a period of cloudy weather on the 10th (Wednesday), and there may be some places where it will rain or snow.

If there is a power outage due to snow, please keep warm with warm clothes, warmers, blankets, etc. In an emergency, please try to find ways to stay as warm as possible.

What precautions should I take to prevent water from freezing?

The following are effective ways to prevent water pipes from freezing due to strong cold.

Drain the water from the water pipes beforehand. There are various types of drain valves, so if you check how to use them beforehand and also check the location of the drain valve, the process of draining water will be smoother.
Keep exposed outdoor water pipes and meters warm by wrapping them tightly with special tape using heat insulating material such as Styrofoam.

However, if the water pipes freeze, leaving them frozen may cause the pipes to burst, and to thaw the water, pour hot water directly into the faucet, etc. It is also dangerous and prohibited. Please be sure to consult your local municipality or request a water company to carry out repair work.
