Influenced by typhoon #12, the weather on Mt. Fuji has been severely rainy with high winds of about 100kph on the summit. Visibility is also low.

Climbers should not attempt to summit or climb the mountain today. Further, roads and trains to/from Mt. Fuji tend to close down in a typhoon event so its best to skip a Fuji visit for the moment.

Looking to the next few days, the weather will open up Sunday morning and while Sunday will still be windy at the summit, it should begin dying down by noon and clearing up more in the following days.

Monday is forecast to be back to regular good climbing weather with low winds and sunny skies.
