Here's the report from today. Apparently, omiwatari occurs if the temperature reaches -10°C for three days. This season, temperatures did drop to that level but not for long enough for omiwatari. Today, the temperature was -8°C. www.yomiuri.co.jp/national/202...

seven year with no ice on Lake Suva
A natural phenomenon called "Omiwatari," in which ice forming on the surface of Lake Suwa in Nagano Prefecture splits to create a mountain rangelike crease, has not appeared for the seventh winter in a row, with climate change believed a factor.

The Miwatari at Lake Suwa in Japan is a sacred ice ridge believed to be the trail of a god, a good omen for the year. They’ve kept records of the phenomenon since 1443. It hasn’t occurred for the last 7 years.

Hi Sapna @sapnasharma.bsky.social, winter limnologists
I'd like to share the current ice condition of Lake Suwa.
Unfortunately, the lake has not frozen, with only partial freezing. The monitoring by priest keeps until Feb 3.
