Pair of tropical storms to impact China and Japan, including Tokyo
Heavy rain from Tropical Storm Lupit will bring flooding and potential landslides to Southeast China, while another storm will bring rain and wind to Tokyo over the weekend.
During a nighttime training flight, two Japanese navy helicopters, each carrying four crew members, crashed in the Pacific Ocean south of Tokyo, possibly colliding with each other, according to the country's defence minister on Sunday. Tragically, one crew member recovered from the waters was later declared deceased, while rescuers continued to search for the remaining seven who were still missing. The incident occurred late Saturday near Torishima island, approximately 600 kilometres (370 miles) south of Tokyo, involving two SH-60K choppers from the Maritime Self-Defense Force, Defense Minister Minoru Kihara informed reporters.

Climate Change Impacting , Cherry Blossom Season , Around the World.
'Time' reports that cherry blossom trees around
the world are blooming earlier as a result of
increasing temperatures due to climate change.
According to Daisuke Sasano, a climate risk management officer , at the Japan Meteorological Agency, the average bloom date, has moved up 1.2 days per decade since 1953.
Cherry trees, known as sakura in Japan, had an
average starting bloom date of March 29 between
1961 and 1990, according to Sasano's research.
Between 1991 and 2020,
the data showed that the
average moved up to March 24. .
In 2023, the starting bloom
date in Tokyo was March 14. .
The fact that Tokyo
recorded the earliest
start date is due to global
warming, compounded
with urbanization, Daisuke Sasano, Climate risk management officer, via 'Time'.
'Time' reports that the warmer-than-normal temperatures
were recorded all around the world this winter,
with January coming in as the hottest ever on record.
Spring is most definitely starting
earlier than when you were a kid—
there is no doubt about that, Theresa Crimmins, Director of the USA
National Phenology Network, via 'Time'.
Many, many studies show
clear trends toward warmer
temperatures and earlier
starts to springtime activity
over the longer term, Theresa Crimmins, Director of the USA
National Phenology Network, via 'Time'.
According to U.S. government data,
peak bloom in Washington D.C. has
shifted earlier by around 7 days since 1921.
