Furthermore, from the 14th (Mon) onwards, it will become dangerously hot again on the Sea of ​​Japan side, and on the 15th (Tue) Niigata City is expected to reach 38°C. The “foehn phenomenon” is expected to occur when the south or east wind blowing toward the typhoon crosses the mountains and becomes hot.

Even after the typhoon has passed, there are still many hot days, mainly in the Kanto and Kinki regions, and there is no sign that the heat will subside.

How to reduce the temperature inside the car efficiently

Travel by car increases during the Obon period. When the temperature inside the car becomes high, what can be done to efficiently lower the temperature?

When the temperature inside the car reached 55°C, we tried several methods to lower the temperature inside the car, and found that the fastest temperature drop was to open the windows fully and turn the car’s air conditioner (auto) to the outside temperature. , set the temperature to Lo (minimum), drive for 2 minutes, close the windows, turn on the air conditioner to circulate the air, and drive for 3 minutes.” With this method, the temperature inside the car reached 28°C after 5 minutes.

As shown in the image above, the most efficient way to cool the interior of the vehicle is to open the windows fully, turn on the air conditioner to introduce outside air, drive out, close the windows, and circulate the inside air to cool the vehicle. .
