Extremely rainy days in Shikoku and southern Kyushu, and even hot days in eastern and northern Japan

Due to the moist air, it is raining extremely heavily intermittently in Shikoku and southern Kyushu, and the Japan Meteorological Agency is calling for caution against sediment-related disasters, inundation of low land, and sudden flooding of rivers.

On the other hand, the temperature rises nationwide during the day, and it is expected that there will be hot days, especially in eastern and northern Japan, so measures against heat stroke are necessary.

Due to the influence of the cold air and warm and moist air in the sky, the atmospheric condition is extremely unstable mainly on the Pacific side of western Japan, and intermittent and extremely heavy rain is occurring mainly on the Pacific side of Shikoku and southern Kyushu. It's raining.
