Is winter in Okinawa cold? Temperature and climate from December to February
Of course, winter comes to Okinawa, where the image of summer is strong. It is from December to February that begins to feel the visit. The temperature in Okinawa at this time corresponds to the temperature around October on the mainland.
At first glance, it may feel that it is not so cold, but due to the influence of the cold north wind unique to Okinawa surrounded by the sea, the perceived temperature is often lower than the temperature.
It is said that the perceived temperature drops by 1 ° C every 1 meter wind speed. In other words, if the temperature is 17 ° C, if the wind speed is 5 meters, the perceived temperature will be 12 ° C! For this reason, Okinawa from December to February may feel cold instead of the temperature.
However, during the day on a sunny day, the temperature exceeds 20 ° C due to strong sunlight, and the sun sets and reaches around 15 ° C at night, so the temperature of the day varies depending on the climate and time of day .
And above all, I want to reduce my luggage as much as possible when traveling. Winter in Okinawa is not so low compared to other regions. Despite this, mufflers, thick coats, gloves, and match the local temperature.……And if you leave in perfect clothes for cold protection, you will have more luggage that you do not use.
So, what kind of clothes should I choose for my trip to Okinawa at this time?
"The point is whether the clothes can respond to the changing temperature!
As mentioned above, in Okinawa from December to February, the temperature and perceived temperature vary depending on the day. Therefore, if you visit a trip during this period, we recommend that you choose clothes that can respond to the changing temperatures.
At this time, we still need to pay attention not only to the heat but also to the sun. It is important to protect your head with hats and caps, as direct exposure to the sun can cause heat stroke. Let's enjoy sightseeing in Okinawa comfortably by taking measures against heat stroke while incorporating fashion.
The key point in choosing clothes when traveling to Okinawa from December to February is to choose a thin one under the outerwear! Thickness can't easily take off when the temperature rises, and can get sweaty. In this regard, if it is thin, it is safe even during the day when the sun is strong.
But nothing is fine if it's thin. With mini skirts or shorts, depending on the day, you may feel quite cold.……。 If you want to enjoy fashion with these clothes, it is important to take measures against the cold, such as wearing tights from below.
Based on these points, we recommend innerwear and knits with cold protection function, and thin hoodie (coats and downs are also acceptable). Parkers and courts are very useful when they say, "I want to see the beautiful sea after coming to Okinawa!" Because it can be quickly removed and put on according to the temperature, it can prevent the body from getting cold due to the cold unique to the coastal area. The knits can express femininity and have a rich cute design, so you can enjoy the fashionable while keeping the cold.
Of course, the points introduced here can also be used to select clothes for small children. If you are worried about clothes during your trip to Okinawa from December to February, please take a look!
No gloves! The item that warms your hand is disposable warmer!
Speaking of must-have items in winter, such as gloves, mufflers and knit hats. Mufflers and knit hats are often incorporated as fashionable items, so local people are also wearing them well. However, I can't see much of the Uchinchu wearing gloves. The reason for this is that Uchinanchu loves disposable warmers.……!
In winter in Okinawa, the temperature does not drop enough to require gloves. Therefore, disposable warmers, which can easily warm their hands, are indispensable items for Uchinanchu to survive winter.
When traveling to Okinawa, enjoy sightseeing while warming up your hands with a must-have item and disposable warmer that is unique to Uchinanchu.
By the way, knit hats can be said to be recommended for traveling to Okinawa from December to February. In winter Okinawa, the north wind blows strongly, so every time the hair is often disturbed, the hair is often blurred. If you wear a knit hat, you can enjoy sightseeing without worrying about the disturbance of your hair.
