Nagano Local Meteorological Observatory, Weather monitoring station in Nagano, Japan

The Nagano Local Meteorological Observatory measures temperature, precipitation, wind patterns, and seismic activity from its position at 418 meters above sea level.

The facility began as a prefectural weather station in 1889 and expanded its operations to include seismic monitoring services by 1915.

The observatory maintains records of seasonal changes, including first snowfall and frost dates, which connect deeply with local agricultural and social practices.

Residents and visitors can access real-time weather data, forecasts, and emergency alerts through the observatory's official website and the AmeDAS network.

Four specialized weather monitoring substations in Matsumoto, Suwa, Iida, and Karuizawa collect detailed meteorological data across different elevation points.
