Most of the Japanese cedar leaves I have seen around Kanto turned brown or gray all around the edges, sort of like a potato chip, altho they had some color in parts of the leaf and looked somewhat normal from a distance. Sometimes the tree tried to compensate (it appears), and produced small patches of new leaves which changed color normally and contrasted sharply with the older potato-chip-crispy burned-looking leaves. A few Japanese cedars produced rainbow leaves, a whole range of colors from red to yellow to green in one leaf. Something is strange, but it could also be abnormal heat and/or high ozone levels from the heat.
My previous comment referred to the strange phenomena seen in momiji, Japanese maple. Somehow “cedar” became “maple” in my mind.
