Japan Faces Record-Breaking Heatwave With Temperatures Above 41 Degrees | Planet Pulse | N18G

Japan has endured its hottest summer since records began in 1898, with average temperatures rising 2.36 degrees Celsius above normal between June and August. The season brought unprecedented extremes, including 41.6°C and 41.8°C recorded on the same day, shattering the previous 41.2°C high set only a week earlier. Cities like Kyoto also hit 40°C for the first time in history. The blistering heat is reshaping daily life, from farmers struggling with rice cultivation to cherry blossoms blooming too early and Mount Fuji’s snowcap appearing a month late.
