We report our analysis of the negative correlation between April and August monthly mean temperatures in northern Japan between 1999 and 2011, as shown in a previous study by Kanno (2013), by extending the period to 2021. The results show that the correlation between April and August monthly mean temperatures in northern Japan persists even if the period is extended to 2021, and that the correlation is observed widely in Japan. The regression coefficient distribution of the Antarctic Oscillation (AAO) index for May for April and August showed a significant relationship around northern Japan in both April and August.
