How to read: Each row shows when a condition blocks opportunities. Stronger red means more locations are affected. These are the top 4 conditions preventing matches across the 80-hour forecast.

This forecast looks for light wind and limited precipitation at Japan's reflective waters. Lake Ashi can mirror Mount Fuji on exceptionally clear, calm mornings; Kenrokuen's ponds reflect maples and winter supports; and Miyajima's high tide places the Itsukushima torii visually in the sea.

A calm-water forecast cannot guarantee a Fuji view, which is most reliable during clear autumn and winter mornings. Lake traffic, rain, and breeze disturb reflections, while Miyajima compositions also depend on the local tide table rather than weather alone. Garden opening hours and tripod restrictions vary, so check venue rules before dawn or illumination visits.

How this forecast is made

Opportunities are threshold-based signals: PhotoWeather checks whether forecast conditions match the rules for a photography scenario. They are planning guidance, not guarantees. Forecasts can change as new model runs arrive, and confidence generally decreases farther into the forecast horizon, so recheck conditions before travelling.

The weather forecast foundation comes through Open-Meteo , which aggregates models from weather agencies. PhotoWeather applies condition-specific thresholds and derived calculations; not every condition uses every model or data input.
