Nippon Professional Baseball stadium weather

    One permanent weather page per NPB park. Live conditions update from nearby stations; the venue notes explain why each park — from open-air Koshien and Mazda Stadium to Tokyo Dome — treats weather differently. All times are shown in local time (JST).

    We have published the first NPB weather study using 3,460 dry open-air games from 2018–2025. Heat added runs, cold suppressed them, and high wind lifted scoring, while rain showed no measurable effect. Read the NPB temperature, wind and scoring study or browse all research.

    What the research says

    Our NPB temperature, wind and scoring study covers 3,460 dry open-air games across 45 grounds from 2018–2025. Findings: 80°F+ added about 0.61 runs per game (t=3.54, n=1,121); 50–59°F reduced scoring by about 0.66 runs (t=-2.40, n=277); wind of 20 mph and over added about 1.44 runs (t=2.70, n=108); and rain was not a reliable signal. We do not report a wind-direction result because park orientations could not be verified, and we have no historical closing-total dataset, so these are scoring findings, not proven betting edges.

    How weather moves NPB games

    Japanese baseball is played through a humid summer, a June–July rainy season, and August–September typhoon risk — while half the league's games are inside domes that neutralize all of it. Whether wind reaches the outfield, how humid summer air carries the ball, and when storms hit the schedule all change from park to park, which is why every NPB venue here gets its own page.
