Hokkaido Continues to be wary of heatstroke on the first hot day of the year
July 09, 2023 at 15:00
Hokkaido was hot again yesterday (8th) and today (9th) was the hottest day in Hokkaido for the first time this year, with a maximum temperature of 35.0 degrees in Kitami in the Kitami region on the Sea of Okhotsk side. It will be the hottest day in Hokkaido for the first time in two years.
The temperature rises steadily from 16.6 degrees in the morning to 35.0 degrees
At around 1,500 meters above Hokkaido, warmer than normal air is flowing in during the midsummer season, which is about 4 degrees higher than normal for the second consecutive day.
Due to this, the temperature rose mainly on the Sea of Japan side and the Sea of Okhotsk side, and by 2:00 pm, the maximum temperature was 30 degrees or more at 69 of the 174 AMeDAS points in Hokkaido where the temperature was observed. In Kitami, the lowest temperature in the morning was 16.6 degrees Celsius, but the highest temperature rose to 35.0 degrees Celsius.
In Hokkaido, last year (2022) was the first year in six years that no hot days were observed, and the first hot day in two years since 2021.
It’s going to be hot tomorrow. Continue to be cautious of heat stroke and food poisoning.
Warm air will continue to flow over Hokkaido tomorrow (10th). Tomorrow, the temperature will be higher than normal across Hokkaido, and it is likely that there will be hot summer days mainly in the inland areas. In Asahikawa, which is a midsummer day after day, the expected maximum temperature is 32 degrees.
In Sapporo, where it was midsummer day two days in a row yesterday and today, the temperature is expected to drop slightly to 29 degrees Celsius, but tomorrow will also be much higher than normal. Please continue to be vigilant against heatstroke and food poisoning.
Points to prevent heatstroke
To prevent heat stroke, keep the following points in mind.
① Try to take care of your physical condition on a daily basis. You can notice changes in your physical condition by measuring your body temperature and checking your health every day at a fixed time, such as in the morning.
② Avoid the heat as much as possible and keep hydrated before you get thirsty. It is effective to wear cool clothes as much as possible, and to use a parasol and a hat. Before and after bathing and after waking up, be sure to replenish water first. If you sweat a lot, don’t forget to replenish not only water but also salt.
③ Don’t put up with the heat, use the air conditioner to moderately lower the indoor temperature. It is a good idea to keep a thermometer in the room and check the room temperature frequently. In addition, when ventilating as a countermeasure against infectious diseases, it is recommended to open two places such as windows and doors, and to use fans and ventilation fans together. After ventilation, please reset the temperature of the air conditioner frequently.
If you feel even slightly unwell, do not overdo it and rest at home. Elderly people, children, and people with disabilities are particularly susceptible to heatstroke, so please be careful and be considerate of those around you.
