About Iwate |

ClimateIwate has a generally cool climate. Although summer temperatures sometimes exceed 30ºC this does not last long. The northern coastal region is frequently plagued by a dense fog, called yamase, so that even in the summer there are some days where the temperature hardly rises at all.The snow season usually runs from November to March, but apart from areas close to the Ou Mountain Range, the snow is not generally very heavy. However, the temperature frequently drops below 0ºC, so it is important to take precautions against frozen pipes, etc ( >> Prevention of Frozen Pipes ).
