What SeeFuji is

SeeFuji estimates whether Mount Fuji can be seen from a chosen spot at a chosen time, and draws the view to match. The estimate comes from an hourly weather forecast, the shape of the land, and the distance to the mountain.

What it is not

It is a guide, not a guarantee. Weather around the mountain changes within minutes, forecasts are wrong some of the time, and beyond about sixteen days SeeFuji shows typical conditions for the season, not a forecast. Do not rely on it for safety, for climbing, or for any decision where being wrong would cost you more than a wasted trip.

The view is a drawing made from data. Trees, buildings and the pier are placed by rule and are not models of real ones. The sound is generated in your browser and was not recorded at the mountain.

Your data

SeeFuji has no accounts and asks for nothing about you. To get a forecast, your browser asks SeeFuji’s server, which asks Open-Meteo for the weather at the spot you picked.
