Admin’s Note

Recently, I’ve noticed an increase in extreme weather events. According to the Meteorological Agency’s announcement, significantly high temperatures are expected starting from mid-July. Special attention is needed, particularly in the Hokuriku and Kinki regions. Conversations between Chako and Log have also highlighted the importance of heatstroke prevention measures.
