Japan Table of Contents. Japan is generally a rainy country with high humidity. Because of its wide range of latitude, Japan has a variety of climates, with a range often compared to that of the east coast of North America, from Nova Scotia to Georgia. Tokyo is at about 36 north latitude, comparable to that of Tehran, Athens, or Los Angeles.
The winter season is the driest time of the year. The only precipitation is the snowfall in the north and west coast of Japan where it is good for winter sports. December to February has very short days, 5:00 pm sunsets, and very cold temperatures, around 40 degrees Fahrenheit or 5 degrees Celsius.
