hellyer 216 Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 So apart from skiing time what IS the most pleasant time to be in Japan? A genuine question as there are often super cheap airfares come up from time to time Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Once the humidity truly has been broken, then Autumn is a great time to visit. I like Spring as well for much the same reason.....although it is a little shorter as Muika says and the humidity creeps in rather quickly Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 There was a thread on this not so long ago (favourite month?) I would say late October / early November. For this part of Japan anyway. Link to post Share on other sites

Tubby Beaver 209 Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Down here we can still have beautiful shorts n t-shirt weather into early December.......I even got a bit sun burn on my noggin last December when out cycling for the day Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Yes definitely. Into December is good too, though I would say peak is early November. Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 yeah....and also when we do have those nice December days, it gets cold very quick when the sun sets Link to post Share on other sites
Chriselle 158 Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 November for me....It's a mixed bag of relief that the shit summer is over and anticipation of ski season. Spring is nice but exactly the opposite to fall.....bummed that ski season is over and realization that the shit summer is just around the corner. I really hate the shit summers......if you didn't already know.. Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Same here hate summer!!!!! We are planning to move so I can expand my farming business among others and have been looking into the possibility of moving to somewhere like Kiyosato where humidity and cockroaches do not exist!

Chriselle 158 Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Really? No humidity......? Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Where is this Nirvana you speak of?! Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Yep no humidity and does not get above 28 even on the hottest day and with night temps around the 14 -16 mark in summer makes for a great place to live. It is 1400m above sea level at its lowest point. In winter it can get down to -25 with daytime highs of around -8. So maybe not good for people who do not like cold. Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 TB im talking about Kiyosato and the suroundings, Nobeyama in Nagano is the same zero humidity even in mid summer. Link to post Share on other sites
Go Native 70 Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Just checked current weather for Kiyosato and the relative humidity was 78%. Bit more than zero humidity snowdude!! Of course we all know your record when it comes to anything weather and climate Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 When I said zero humidity I mean the air does not feel humid at all of course the air has some humidity in it but if you go there the air feels dry you do not sweat at all unless your actually in the sun. Before you come out with your smart arse fuc&$ng comments how about you get your arse over to Kiyosato and see what I mean. And I do not need you fu@$ing checking everything I say on here, now if you can just piss off we will all have a better time on here. Link to post Share on other sites
Karnidge 2 Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Out of interest, what is the humidity level in mid winter when it's well cold? Link to post Share on other sites
