Japan experiences sharp temperature increase
Temperatures continue to rise sharply in Japan, surpassing 40°C for the fifth consecutive day in several cities, including areas in the Tokai region. This is the longest streak of extreme heat days since data collection began in 2010. Cities such as Kwana, Mie, Gifu, and Toyota recorded record temperatures, with readings exceeding 40.8°C.
