富士山で最も遅い初冠雪　平年より３６日遅く

　富士山で７日午前、初冠雪が観測された。甲府地方気象台によると、平年に比べ３６日、昨年に比べ３３日遅く、１８９４年の観測開始以来、最も遅い記録となった。これまでの記録は１９５５年と２０１６年の１０月２６日。気温が平年より高い状態が続き、季節の進みが遅かったことが理由という。（2024/11/07-10:34）

A snowcap was observed on Mount Fuji, the tallest peak in Japan, for the first time this season Thursday morning, the latest date since surveys began in 1894.
   The appearance of snow at the peak of the mountain was 36 days later than average and 33 days later than last year, according to the meteorological office in Kofu, Yamanashi Prefecture.
   The previous record for the latest first snowcap was set in 1955 and 2016, being observed on Oct. 26.
   The late appearance apparently reflects a delay of the change in seasons due to higher-than-average temperatures.
   Rain that fell intermittently from Wednesday evening to early night at the foot of the mountain fell as snow at the summit, said the Kofu meteorological office, which annually monitors the first snowcap through visual observation.
