社会｜猛暑到来！35℃超えの予報 / Society | Heatwave Arrival! Forecast for temperatures exceeding 35°C

Summary

Next week, especially on the 17th and 18th, a severe heat wave is expected in the Kanto, Koshin, and Tokai regions, with temperatures exceeding 35°C.

Due to the influence of the Pacific high pressure system, temperatures in central Tokyo are also expected to reach 34°C, necessitating precautions against heat-related illnesses. This heat is comparable to body temperature, and on particularly humid days, it’s important to be cautious of “rainy season heat illness.” When going outside, it is essential to take proper measures to prevent heatstroke.

Admin’s Note

Recently, the temperatures have been rising suddenly, and I’m surprised by the forecast predicting heat that feels like midsummer. Heatstroke is an issue that affects many people every year, and it’s especially important to be cautious during periods of high humidity. In the conversations between Chako and Log, the importance of heatstroke prevention was also emphasized. Everyone, please remember to stay hydrated when going outside and to avoid overexerting yourselves. Taking care of your health is essential.
