Yokohama Weather Camera
About the Yokohama Weather Camera Camera
This is a dedicated weather camera pointed at the sky over Yokohama City in Kanagawa. The source channel frames it that way, so the subject is the conditions rather than any landmark.
That makes it more useful than it sounds. Yokohama sits on Tokyo Bay with the Tanzawa mountains inland to the west, and most weather arrives from that direction — so cloud building on this camera is often a reasonable early indicator for the wider Tokyo and Kanagawa area, not just Yokohama itself.
What it shows changes with the season rather than the hour. Summer brings the towering convective cloud that produces sudden heavy showers; autumn and winter give the clear dry days when visibility inland is at its best; and the rainy season in June is a long stretch of flat grey. Sunset colour over the bay is worth catching on clear evenings.
