日中は穏やかな晴れ。稜線での突風に注意

Mount Akadake summit is experiencing clear skies with excellent visibility. At 7 AM, the summit temperature was 6.4 degrees Celsius, a 9.6-degree difference from the base. Temperatures are expected to rise further throughout the day, reaching 11.3 degrees Celsius by noon. Ground conditions are dry with no snow cover and no precipitation forecast, indicating exposed rocky terrain. Muddy conditions are unlikely.

By noon, southerly winds are expected to strengthen, with gusts potentially reaching 10.1 meters per second. At this wind speed, the perceived temperature will be approximately 10 degrees Celsius lower than the actual temperature, making it feel around 1 degree Celsius even with the 11.3-degree forecast. For active layering, wear a quick-drying base layer, a thin mid-layer, and a windproof outer shell. Always carry an insulated jacket, such as a down jacket, for breaks.

Particular caution is advised on exposed rocky sections, such as the chain sections of Bunzaburo-one and Jizo-one ridges, where strong gusts could cause loss of balance. Proceed carefully, ensuring secure footing. Crampons or microspikes are not necessary, but waterproof and windproof rain gear is essential. While the risk of thunderstorms is low, preparedness for sudden weather changes is always crucial in mountain environments.

Temperatures will gradually decline from evening, dropping to around 3 degrees Celsius by midnight. Do not be complacent due to the daytime clear weather; ensure adequate insulation if you plan to stay overnight.
