天気 (Weather) in Japan


Japan is an island therefore the climate is not the same throughout the entire country. Since I will be living in Tokyo, I mainly am interested in how the weather will be here during my stay.

Tokyo, the same as The Pennsylvania, has the four seasons of winter spring summer and fall. The seasons that I'm used to however are a tad different. I'm happy that this year I will not have to suffer through a freezing cold winter. The average temperate in January and February is 49-50 degrees in Tokyo. March and April should get up into the 60s and maybe even low 70s. This is the type of weather I love and perfect for cute outfits, which I love even more!

At my pre-departure orientation I was advised to pack an umbrella. Japan has a high precipitation rate. Rain is mostly prominent in the summer months of June and July, but it still happens year round. I put one of those plastic bubble umbrellas on my Christmas list. My umbrella I have now constantly turns inside out and is a hassle for than a help.
