What's your go-to for live updates of Autumn leaves? The ones I used don't really have live updates for Saitama!

    I check with Japan Meteorological Corp. it distinguishes between "autumn" and "yellow" foliage. Their most recent forecast is here - https://n-kishou.com/corp/news-contents/autumn/?lang=en

    My go-to site for this is https://tenki.jp/kouyou/ (they are also helpful in spring with the sakura). I don't know if they have an app, I just use the website version! They have a nice visual scale of where leaves are still green, where they're starting to change color, where they are at their peak, and where they are starting to fall. They also have sections where you can search for leaf spots in your region which is helpful for some inspiration!

    @BigfamJapan if you do find any apps that are good though, please let us know! I think it'd be easier to have an app on my phone than have to check online from time to time.

Is there a limit on daily posts?

Does anyone know if there is a limit on the number of posts we can publish each day? The reason I ask is, yesterday I wrote more than 30 posts, but I realized last night that at least the last two I wrote, have disappeared. They definitely published, but then disappeared a few minutes later. One was about a Santa in Nagoya, the other about Santa in Tamadairanomori. There maybe more but those two are definitely missing.

Where do you visit Santa Claus?

Firstly, do you visit Santa Claus each year in Japan? And if so, where? I've been posting places you can meet Santa Claus in various parts of Japan on the blog section. If you are looking for somewhere to meet him this year, you'll find at least 25 places on City-cost.

Did you feel the December 8th earthquake?

There was a large earthquake off the coast of Aomori Prefecture at 11.15 pm on December 8th 2025. We are approximately 700 kilometers from the epicenter, yet we felt it very strongly. Did you feel it and how far away (roughly) are you from the epicenter?
