Severe heatwave is expected to continue into July


(Web Desk): According to international news agencies, Japan's Meteorological Agency has announced that this year’s June was the hottest in the country’s history, with average temperatures being 2.34°C higher than normal.
The Meteorological Agency further stated that temperature records have been maintained since 1898, and since then, no June has ever been this hot.
The average temperature in June 2025 was nearly one degree higher than that of the previously hottest June recorded five years ago.
The statement explained that the main cause of this heatwave was a powerful high-pressure system dominating across the country, resulting in intense heat.
In the town of “Oumu” in Japan’s Hokkaido region, the average temperature in June was recorded at 4.8°C above normal.
In the city of Sendai, it was 3.6°C above normal. In central Tokyo, there were 13 days in June when temperatures reached 30°C or higher — 2.8°C above the monthly average.
The Meteorological Agency has warned that the severe heatwave is expected to continue into July, urging the public to take precautions and protect themselves from heatstroke.
