> Japan has recorded 8,821 instances of “extreme heat” – a temperature of 35C or higher – so far this year, easily beating the previous record of 6,692 set in 2023
Fucking hell.
I noticed 🫠
Hottest summer ever recorded… so far
That’s what they said last year
This is fine. 🥵
Wake up sheeple it is clearly a plot to make you drink more Pocari Sweat !
I was over there until last week and remember thinking how fucking bad it was. I’m used to the Australian summer that gets hotter but my God was the humidity so high it felt like I could swim through the air.
That’s how it starts. It only gets worse from here.
It was so weird coming to Thailand and it feeling refreshingly cooler here than Osaka.
One of the coolest summers of the rest of your life.
I’m glad it wasn’t so bad up in Hokkaido compared to last year, but I feel sorry for the rest of the country.
I was there 2 months ago. When in the sun, I felt like being burn with radiation.
Does this mean winter will be delayed and probably extend through March/April?
Okay. I’m currently visiting and as soon as I stepped off the plane I said “wow, that’s high humidity”. I grew up in Houston, Texas and it’s not that bad, but it does bring back memories.
In Tokyo I honestly think it’s not been as bad as last year. The last few weeks especially have been a bit cooler. The worst thing about last year was it went on and on for most of September.
You mean the coldest summer in what remains of theor life?
*cicada noises*
We broke the planet. I need to escape to Hokkaidō tbh.
I was there for the month of August and coming from the south of Spain I expected to be “fine”. Leaving the apartment at 8am with 31 degrees to walk all day long and sweat all the clothes I had was an experience. Thank god for the vending machines you have all over. Now I feel sorry for the tourist walking through Seville in August on 42 degrees.
Can’t wait to see this headline again next year!
So many shops/restaurants were like 30+ inside, made it really hard to leave the hellscape.
Japanese in summer: oh we don’t set the AC low because people will get sick from such a dramatic change in temperature
Japanese in winter: Fuck it, set the heater to 35
As an American who just experienced his first summer in Japan, I never want to again. I’ll be returning back to the states for summer.
