MT. FUJI’S FIRST SNOWFALL OF 2025 
This year’s snowfall came two weeks earlier than 2024, when snow settled on the 3,776-metre (12,388-ft) mountain only on November 7, the latest since records began.
While the first snowfall on Fuji has arrived later in recent years, the cause was uncertain, Mamoru Matsumoto of the Kofu observatory office of the meteorological agency told Reuters last year.
Japan recorded its highest-ever temperature in August when it reached 41.8 degrees Celsius (107.2 Fahrenheit) in the city of Isesaki to the northwest of Tokyo. | via Reuters
