There are many places on the Pacific Ocean side from the 12th to the 15th, so it seems that there is a chance to see the "Gemini Star Stars".Cold measures are indispensable for winter astronomical observations.In the first half of next week, there are places where winter is cold, so please keep it cold when observing outdoors.On the other hand, on the Sea of Japan side from Hokkaido to Hokuriku, it is susceptible to low pressure and chills, and there are many rainy and snowy days, so it is likely to be unfortunate for astronomical observation.
