初夏のトマム日差し穏やか。夜間へ向け防寒対策を

Currently, Tomamu summit is mostly clear with a temperature of 5.8 degrees Celsius and a felt temperature of 1.6 degrees Celsius. The day will turn completely clear, with the summit temperature rising to 11 degrees Celsius by noon. Winds will be gentle, making it a comfortable hiking day around the Cloud Terrace area. Visibility exceeds 20km, promising expansive views. Gondola access will also be pleasant. There is no snow cover, and areas like North Bar and Riverside, known for powder in winter, are now completely exposed ground with no residual snow. Ground conditions are generally dry, but shaded areas and stream beds may have wet or muddy sections.

The daytime felt temperature during activity is expected to be around 4 to 9 degrees Celsius. A moisture-wicking short-ssleeve or light long-sleeve base layer, with a light fleece as a mid-layer, is appropriate. Always carry a windproof shell for breaks and cooler morning or late afternoon periods. A rapid temperature drop of 8 degrees Celsius is forecast for the evening, so carry an extra insulating layer such as a thicker fleece or a light down jacket for any activity extending into the evening.

The risk of lightning is low, and strong gusts peaking around 10.3 meters per second are not at a level to impede activity. However, be mindful of frostbite and hypothermia due to the temperature drop. Especially at night, temperatures will fall to 2.4 degrees Celsius by 9 PM and 0.2 degrees Celsius by midnight. If your activity extends into the evening or night, robust cold weather gear and an early decision to turn back are crucial. Crampons or chain spikes are not required, but carry full rain gear for wind and cold protection.
