Japan's Mount Fuji Sees No Snow During Unusually Warm Weather

YAMANAKAKO, JAPAN - OCTOBER 31: Swans are seen in front of Mount Fuji on the beach of Lake Yamanakako on October 31, 2024 in Yamanakako Village, Japan. Japan's iconic Mount Fuji has yet to receive any snowfall this year, marking the latest date without snow since records began 130 years ago. Typically, the mountain's snowcap forms by early October, but unusually high temperatures this summer have delayed its arrival, raising concerns about climate change's impact on weather patterns.
