Thank you for visiting。 It's getting really cold、munejyuka。 The wind is strong and the temperature is dropping... The countdown to 2023 is finally here.。 There are 9 days left including today.。 It has reached the single digits。 How are you all doing? Or rather, before Christmas! That Saturday morning before Christmas。 We have checked expressway information for the Kinki region。 Were there traffic jams on your way out? I was curious so I checked! Saturday, December 23, 2023、Results of checking expressway conditions in the Kinki region after 8 a.m.、Traffic jams of more than 3 km were occurring in the following sections:。 ・Hanshin Expressway Kobe Line westbound 4km from near Fukae Only one section had traffic congestion of 3km or more。 Surprisingly, there wasn't much traffic.。 Why? It's before Christmas、I thought there would be more people going out.。 temperature is low、Does the cold have an effect?。 It looks like it's snowing a lot in the Hokuriku region.。 The weather conditions on Hokuriku Expressway seem to be such that you can only drive with winter tires.。 Fukui prefecture、Ishikawa prefecture、If you were thinking of going sightseeing in the Toyama prefecture area, you may have thought twice.。 Other expressway information We also checked expressway information other than traffic jams。 ・Accident information：0 cases ・Broken car information：5 pieces ・Falling object information：1 - Kansai International Airport Bridge has a speed limit of 60km/h due to crosswinds. This may have been due to the small number of cars.、There was no accident information。 It was good。 There were 5 broken vehicle information.。 I just hope it's a minor malfunction.。 A speed limit of 60km/h was imposed on the Kansai Airport Bridge due to crosswinds.。 It's along the coast of southern Osaka Prefecture, where strong winds have been blowing since yesterday.。 Please be careful if you plan to pass。 Summary ・Saturday, December 23, 2023、Check the expressway situation in the Kinki region after 8 a.m. ・Congestion of more than 3km in one section ・No accident information、5 broken car information、1 falling object information - Kansai International Airport connecting bridge has a speed limit of 60km/h due to crosswinds This time、December 23, 2023 (Saturday)、・ Check the highway conditions in the Kinki region after 8 am on Saturday, April 9, 2022。 Was the arrival of the cold wave also a factor?、There seemed to be few people going out in the morning.。

Thank you for visiting。 I refueled at a gas station this week as well.、munejyuka。 This is 95 consecutive weeks.。 I think it's going well for me.。 I refuel at a self-service gas station.。 The price of regular gasoline at that self-service gas station、I'm holding back、This time I happened to check the price on December 16, 2020, three years ago.、It was a shocking price! Let's compare regular gasoline prices on December 20, 2023 and December 16, 2020. Let's check it out right away.。 First, check the price of regular gasoline at self-service gas stations on December 20, 2023.。 The price is、It was 160 yen per liter.。 next、Regular gasoline prices as of December 16, 2020、The price at this time is、 It was 120 yen。 … … It will cost you 40 yen! ! Was it a mistake when I first saw it? That's what I thought、It wasn't a mistake。 40 yen is quite a lot.。 about 3 months ago、It was in the news because gasoline prices were rising.、If you know the price as of December 2020、I would say it's pretty high now.。 However、There may be some people who think that 2020 was too cheap... In the future、I wonder what will happen... So far、Gasoline prices are said to be high。 So, no one knows what yen would be appropriate.、It is true that prices are quite high compared to 2020 prices.。 From now on、I wonder how it will turn out。 Will it change a little if the yen appreciates? Or will prices stay like this for a while? No one understands all this。 From the perspective of someone who often drives a car,、I would be happy if it could be made a little cheaper.。 I hope to continue checking it out in the future! Please read to the end、thank you very much!

Thank you for visiting。 I hate cold、munejyuka。 No matter what I do, it's cold... Wednesday, December 20, 2023、After 21:15、When I was checking the highway conditions, I saw something that surprised me.。 I would like to check it in detail! Freezing prevention work on Hanwa Expressway? What is the surprising content?、 Anti-icing work is currently underway on the Hanwa Expressway between Arita IC and Izumisano JCT.。 I live along the coast in southern Osaka Prefecture.、I have almost never seen the roads frozen.。 So、I was a little surprised to see that anti-freeze work was underway on the Hanwa Expressway this time.。 Hanwa Expressway is along the mountain, so、Although there is a trend towards lower temperatures、is。 What surprised me even more was... I was surprised during anti-icing work on Hanwa Expressway.、What was more surprising was、 It is said that anti-freeze work was not carried out on the Kyoto Jukan Expressway or Keinawa Motors.。 If you're doing antifreeze work on Hanwa Expressway.、I thought they were doing this on other expressways as well.、That wasn't the case lol Is there such a thing? Antifreeze work is underway in the southern Kinki region.、I was not working in a cold place in Kyoto.。 Was the temperature lower between Wakayama Prefecture and southern Osaka Prefecture? Or maybe it's because the temperature rarely gets this low.、Did you work with just in mind? The truth is in the darkness... Anyway、There has been news that the temperature will drop in the past few days.。 It is said that a cold wave will arrive once every 10 years.。 Not just highways、There is a risk of freezing even on public roads.。 Drive carefully、I want to run!

Thank you for visiting。 yearly、I drive a car about 360 days a year.、munejyuka。 What about you all? I went to the gas station again this week to refuel.。 I've been refueling at gas stations for 94 consecutive weeks now.。 When you get to this point、Should I aim for 100 weeks?。 I think I checked the unit price of regular gasoline again this time.。 I believe that someday I'll look back on it... What is the price of regular gasoline at a self-service gas station? This time, I refueled with regular gasoline at a self-service gas station.。 The price of 1 liter is、 It was 160 yen。 Last week's price was also 160 yen.、It hasn't changed.。 Now it's 160 yen for 4 consecutive weeks.。 You're calm, aren't you?。I guess it remains slightly high.。 What was the price a year ago? By the way,、Also check the price from a year ago.。 The price per liter of regular gasoline on December 15th, about a year ago, was、 It was 150 yen。 It was 10 yen cheaper than today.。 You may think it's only 10 yen, but、If you refuel 50 liters, there will be a difference of 500 yen.。 Doesn't it feel big?

I don't have high expectations.、I would like to hope that the price will go down just a little bit!

When will the winter solstice be in 2023? I was curious so I looked into it! When is the winter solstice in 2023? According to research、The winter solstice of 2023 is、 It is Friday, December 22nd.。 Just in case、The winter solstice is、 It is the day of the year when the sun is out for the shortest amount of time.。 To say it the other way around、``The day when the night is the longest''。 We are now heading towards the winter solstice、It means that it should get dark earlier each day.。 Check the sunrise and sunset times in Osaka during the winter solstice. Specifically, the date of the 2023 winter solstice.、I checked the sunset and sunrise times in Osaka.。 Sunrise、 At 7:01、 Sunset、 It was 16:51.。 I was surprised that the sunrise was already past 7 o'clock.。 It's so late...
