櫻花花開預測2026

Cherry blossoms are gradually reaching full bloom across many areas, and they are now at their best viewing stage over a wide region. From the Kanto region westward, the peak is expected to continue through this weekend.
This year, many locations have seen earlier-than-average flowering, with some areas in eastern Japan experiencing significantly early blooming. In northern Japan, flowering is progressing earlier than in the previous forecast.

This winter, cold air masses arrived repeatedly, but they did not last long, and there were also periods of notably high temperatures. As a result, dormancy breaking is thought to have been somewhat weaker than average in many areas, with this tendency becoming more pronounced toward the west.
Since mid-February, temperatures have been considerably warm. The return of colder conditions has been temporary, and warmer conditions have continued through the latter half of March. Consequently, flowering occurred earlier than average in western Japan, with some areas in eastern Japan seeing significantly early blooming.
In northern Japan, temperatures are forecast to be considerably higher than average through April, so flowering is expected to be significantly earlier as well.
