It’s bloody hot here. Yesterday the weather service recorded Tokyo’s highest temperature since they began measurements in 1923–it was 39.5 (just over 103 F) in Otemachi. 210 people were treated for heatstroke, but I don’t think anyone died.
Being outside was like walking through blood.
Today was slightly cooler at 37.2 (99 F) but I had to dress up for the CEATEC poster photo shoot, so I was wearing cosmetics, pantyhose, and a suit. Atsuiiiiii!
The average temperature in Tokyo for 7/21 is 25.8 but today’s average is 33.3. I can only hope that this ends very soon or I am going to melt.
