The Fukuoka Meteorological Observatory forecasts a winter with average temperatures and precipitation for northern Kyushu from December to February. While colder air driven by La Niña may bring occasional cold snaps, long-term averages are expected to align with past years. Rainfall will remain near normal in December and February, while January may experience drier conditions. This follows a hotter-than-usual late summer and autumn. Officials urge residents to prepare for potential strong cold spells and monitor weather updates for timely information. Source: NHK
