About this app

Japan Meteorological Corporation (JMC) announces forecasts for the blooming and full bloom dates for approximately 1,000 cherry blossom (Somei Yoshino) locations nationwide, from Hokkaido to Kagoshima, as well as for Kawazu cherry blossom (Kawazu) spots in Kawazu Town (※).
* Kawazu Town, Kamo District, Shizuoka Prefecture

■ What is "Sakura no Kimochi"?
This app shows the predicted blooming and full bloom dates for cherry blossom spots (famous cherry blossom spots) across the country, as well as the progress of cherry blossoms toward bloom (bloom meter).

It also includes features to help you enjoy cherry blossoms even more, such as "Cherry Blossom Spot Approaching Notifications" that notify you when you approach a cherry blossom spot, and a "Stamp Rally" that allows you to record the spots you've visited.

✨ Starting in 2026, we'll be adding blooming and full bloom forecasts for Kawazu cherry blossoms!

In addition to the approximately 1,000 Somei Yoshino cherry blossom locations available, you can now also view blooming and full bloom forecasts for nine Kawazu cherry blossom locations in Kawazu Town!
Kawazu cherry blossoms are an early-blooming variety that blooms from early February to early March. Their flowers are a deeper pink than Somei-Yoshino cherry blossoms and last a relatively long time.
Enjoy the early arrival of spring with the app.

✨ Starting in 2026, we'll be adding a "Festival Information" page!
We'll feature selected festival information from across Japan. Use it as a reference for your outings and travels.

[About Cherry Blossom Growth]
The flower buds that become cherry blossoms are formed in the summer of the year before they bloom. They only bloom after going dormant, awakening (breaking dormancy), and growing.
After forming in the summer, flower buds first enter dormancy. They awaken (break dormancy) due to a certain amount of cold from fall to winter, and then grow as the temperature rises in early spring.

[About the Information Provision Period]
Blooming Meter information is first provided around autumn each year and is updated daily thereafter.
The predicted dates for blooming and full bloom are announced annually between December and January, and are updated weekly from mid-February onwards.
The above information will cease to be available for spots where the cherry blossoms have lost their leaves approximately one week after the predicted full bloom date.

[About Otenki Navigator]
Cherry blossom bloom forecast information can also be found on the comprehensive weather website "Otenki Navigator."

Otenki Navigator not only provides cherry blossom information, but also facility information such as the addresses of famous spots and whether parking is available. You can access the page directly from the "Spot Details" button in the app, so please also take a look.
