Tomorrow, the 18th (Monday: Respect for the Aged Day), there is a risk of heavy rain in Hokkaido and northern Kyushu. Be careful of sudden changes in weather near Honshu. There will be heavy rain with localized thunderstorms. The severe summer heat continues across the country, and Maebashi City, Gunma Prefecture, may experience the latest heat wave since statistics began.

Heavy rain is feared for Hokkaido and northern Kyushu

Tomorrow, the 18th (Monday: Respect for the Aged Day), the autumn rain front is expected to pass near the Korean Peninsula and extend into northern Japan, and the low-pressure system above the front is expected to pass near Hokkaido. Warm, moist air will flow toward the front and low pressure system.

Hokkaido and northern Kyushu need to be especially careful about how the rain falls. Rain will be widespread in Hokkaido, with localized heavy rain and heavy rain in some places. The atmosphere in northern Kyushu will continue to be extremely unstable, and there is a risk of extremely heavy rain accompanied by localized thunderstorms from early morning until morning. In northern Kyushu, there are areas where the ground has already become loose due to heavy rains. Please be careful of landslides. We also need to be wary of inundation of low-lying land, rising water levels and flooding of rivers.

From Tohoku to Chugoku, Shikoku, and southern Kyushu, there will be periods of sunshine, but there will be rain and thunderstorms in places. Heavy rain is likely to occur locally with thunder. Please be aware of sudden changes in the weather when planning outdoor leisure activities.

The severe lingering heat continues, with some areas experiencing extremely hot days in inland areas.

Tomorrow, the 18th (Monday: Respect for the Aged Day), will continue to be a hot and humid day due to the hot and humid air south of the front.

The minimum temperature will be higher than normal across the country, with 25 degrees Celsius expected in places such as Sendai City in the Tohoku region, and 25 degrees Celsius or higher in many places from Kanto to Kyushu and Okinawa. Temperatures in Yokohama are expected to reach 27 degrees Celsius, a record high since mid-September. It will be a difficult night to sleep.

Maximum temperatures are also likely to be higher than normal across the country. In Hokkaido, temperatures in places like Sapporo have risen to nearly 30 degrees Celsius, which is comparable to midsummer. From Tohoku to Kyushu and Okinawa, there are many places where the temperature is around 33 degrees Celsius, and the humid heat reminiscent of summer is likely to continue. In some inland areas of Tohoku and Kanto, it will be extremely hot. In Maebashi City, Gunma Prefecture, the temperature was 35 degrees Celsius, which could be the slowest day since statistics began. Miyako City in Iwate Prefecture, Kumagaya City, and Saitama City in Saitama Prefecture will also experience extremely hot days with temperatures reaching 35 degrees Celsius.

The risk of heat stroke increases. Please continue to take measures against the heat. Please stay hydrated frequently and use the air conditioner appropriately when indoors to stay cool.

What is the harbinger of landslides?

When a landslide occurs due to heavy rain, there are certain phenomena that can be a precursor. Please remember this in case of an emergency.

The first is the formation of cracks in the cliff or ground.
Second, you can hear the sound of wood splitting, stones hitting each other, and the smell of earth.
The third problem is that water from wells, rivers, and springs becomes cloudy. If the spring water stops flowing, it is also one of the harbingers.
Fourth, water gushes out from cliffs and slopes.

Other symptoms include pebbles falling apart, the ground rumbling or mountains rumbling, river levels dropping even though it continues to rain, and trees leaning. At times like this, the risk of landslides increases. Immediately call out to those around you and evacuate to a safe place.
