Hanabie
Over the past few days, we have been experiencing a climate called 'hanabie' (花冷え).
Since 'hana' (花) means "flower" and 'hie/bie' (冷え) means "get cold," the literal meaning of 'hanabie' is "flowers get cold."
In April in the northern hemisphere, there are more warm days and cherry blossoms bloom, but sometimes the climate suddenly turns cold and snow falls.
Such a climate is described as 'hanabie' in Japanese because the blooming cherry blossoms get cold.
Please be careful not to catch a cold due to the severe temperature difference in 'hanabie'.
