❄️ First snow on Mt. Fuji — autumn meets winter 🗻🍁
Japan's most famous mountain got its first snowcap of the season on Friday morning, Oct 30 — and what a contrast! Snow on the summit, autumn colours below.
Radar showed at least 1 cm of snow at the top (3,776m, −6.3°C). This year it was confirmed by weather data for the first time, instead of by eye — 28 days later than average.
Would you love to see Fuji like this — snow above, red maples below? 🍂
