Extremely hot weekend Tokyo 37 ℃ forecast Temperature level in Tokai and Kanto area Heat stroke warning alert in a wide range
August 19, 2023 06:04
Extreme heat this weekend. The maximum temperature is 37 degrees Celsius in central Tokyo, and it is as hot as body temperature mainly in the Tokai and Kanto regions. Today, the 19th (Saturday), a heatstroke alert was announced for a wide area from Okinawa to Tohoku. Take measures against heat stroke throughout the day.
Tokai and Kanto, as hot as body temperature
Today, the 19th (Saturday) will be covered by high pressure, and it will be sunny over a wide area from Okinawa and Kyushu to Kanto Koshin and Hokuriku. The sun is shining brightly during the day, and the temperature is likely to rise rapidly. The “rain showers” that soften the heat are mainly in the mountains and inland areas, but please be careful of sudden “heavy rains”. Temperatures are likely to rise in Tohoku and Hokkaido, where rainfall is due to the front.
The maximum temperature will be 37 degrees Celsius in central Tokyo and 36 degrees Celsius in Nagoya, as hot as body temperature. If the maximum temperature reaches 35 degrees Celsius or higher today, it will be the 20th hot day of the year in central Tokyo, which is currently updating the number of hot days in a year. In addition, the number of AMeDAS sites with extremely hot days nationwide is expected to exceed 100 for the first time in six days.
Heat stroke alerts have been issued for 33 prefectures in the Tohoku region, from Okinawa and Kyushu. If you plan to go out, take measures such as using heatstroke prevention goods and taking frequent breaks.
Extreme heat continues Nighttime temperatures are high
Tomorrow the 20th (Sunday) will be sunny over a wide area, and intense heat will continue from Kyushu to Kanto Koshin and Hokuriku. In western Japan, such as the Chugoku region and the Kinki region, the number of extremely hot days is expected to increase from today’s 19th (Saturday). The sunshine will reach mainly the southern part of the Tohoku region, and it will feel even hotter.
It is also important to note that the temperature is high in the morning and evening. From Okinawa and Kyushu to Tohoku, there are many places where the minimum temperature is 25°C or higher, and tropical nights continue. Make sure you get enough sleep and eat well so that you don’t get tired from the heat.
Actions to be taken when a heatstroke alert is announced
When a heatstroke alert is announced, there are five things you should do to avoid heatstroke.
① Avoid going out as much as possible and avoid the heat. Avoiding heat is the most important way to prevent heat stroke. Avoid non-essential outings as much as possible. Indoors, regardless of the time of day or night, use an air conditioner to adjust the temperature of the room.
② As a general rule, exercise outdoors or indoors without an air conditioner should be canceled or postponed.
③ Let’s practice heat stroke prevention actions more than usual. Before you get thirsty, drink water frequently and wear cool clothes as much as possible.
④ Let’s talk to people who are at high risk of heat stroke. Elderly people, children, people with chronic diseases, obesity, and people with disabilities are more susceptible to heatstroke, so people around them say, “Use the air conditioner even at night,” and “Try to drink water frequently.” Please call
⑤ Check the heat index (WBGT). The heat index varies greatly depending on the time of day and location. Please check the heat stroke prevention information site of the Ministry of the Environment and use the heat index as a guideline for your actions.
