Fukui Shimbun Online

Fukui Shimbun Online is the website of Fukui Shimbun, a regional newspaper covering Fukui Prefecture, Japan. Its homepage groups local stories under society, crime and accidents, politics and administration, economy, nuclear power, sports, medicine, education, and events and culture, and links to editorials and the Koshiyama Jakusui column. National coverage has sections for society, politics, international affairs, business, health, science and environment, weather and disasters, and sports.

Weather links cover Fukui and Tsuruga; public-safety modules are labeled for earthquakes, evacuation, warnings, tsunami, river flooding, linear rainbands, and civil protection. A road-live-video link describes a camera on the newspaper’s Fukui City headquarters showing traffic near the Route 8 Owada intersection, weather, and surrounding scenery in real time. Other links lead to print subscriptions, D刊 digital-edition registration and applications, a newspaper-page viewer, web extras, and audio reading. One visible item is labeled D刊-limited and paid; the homepage does not establish general prices or access rules.
