3-month forecast Severe heat will continue until October
The Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) released a three-month forecast for August to October today, the 25th.
As a result, due to global warming and the El Niño event, in which the sea surface temperature near the equator off the coast of Peru in South America is in a higher than normal condition, warm air is likely to cover the whole country and the temperature is expected to rise.
In August Japan, Japan eastern, western , Okinawa, and Amami,
and northern Japan are expected to experience a warmer-than-normal condition.
In September, Western Japan, Okinawa, and Amami are expected to be in a warmer-than-normal condition,
and in the eastern Japan, a normal or warmer-than-normal condition is expected to occur, and
in the northern Japan.
October is expected to be warmer than normal nationwide, and severe residual heat is expected to continue.
In addition, precipitation
in the next three months is expected to be normal or above normal in the western Japan, eastern Japan, and northern Japan, and almost normal in Okinawa and
Amami.
On a monthly basis, westerly winds are expected to flow near the northern Japan and be affected by moist air in August,
so the north Japan is expected to be in a normal or above-normal condition, and the eastern Japan, western Japan, and Okinawa and
Amami are expected to be in a normal condition.
In September,
westerly winds move southward and are more likely to form low pressure systems and fronts near the east Japan and west Japan, so ▽ Pacific side and west Japan of the east Japan are in a normal or above normal condition, ▽
The Japan Sea side of the northern Japan and the eastern Japan, Okinawa and Amami are almost normal.
October is expected to be almost normal nationwide.
Takafumi Nagida, director of the Japan Meteorological Agency's Abnormal Weather Information Center, said, "There is a possibility that the temperature will continue for a long time, so please be careful about your physical condition, and pay attention to the latest weather information because typhoons and autumn rains are prone to heavy rains that can lead to disasters every year."
