説明文:
On July 20, 2026, Japan’s Meteorological Agency declared the rainy season over across the Kanto and Tokai regions, and that same day central Tokyo hit 36.1°C — the year’s first ‘extremely hot day.’ This year Europe also saw repeated heatwaves near 40°C, yet travelers who lived through them say the Japanese summer is a different animal. The reason is not the temperature reading. It is the humidity that stops sweat from evaporating, nights that never cool down, and a style of sightseeing that keeps you walking outdoors from morning to night. This video works through the idea behind Japan’s heat index (WBGT), how a traveler’s day stacks up strain hour by hour, and a structural shift in tourism: heat and crowding point to the same prescription — dispersal.
