Japan broke it's All-time NATIONAL heat record for the 2nd time in... checks notes... less than a week! It's not coincidence. It's climate change. Japan is surrounded by the most anomalously hot water on the planet right now. The city of Isesaki hit 107 - it's in a valley NW of Tokyo. 1/
😱
Many decades ago, there was talk about the next ice age and global cooling. Truly those were happier times.

No one tell the Europeans, they'll be here in seconds to explain why it's actually 10C cooler but somehow worse in Britain
But - but global warming is a hoax! 🤦🏻♀️
I cannot even imagine how awful that is in Japan's high humidity.
Climate change. Say it louder.
In the meanwhile, Uruguay is already at 75% renewable of all energy use.
Uruguay was nearly bankrupted by fossil fuels use
They are now near independent
And economy is back under control!!
Why isn’t this in the news???
Fight climate change AND become energy independent!!
Is anyone doing anything about it? I don’t think so. My wife & I are in our 70’s/80’s. We’ll make it through. Our daughter is in her 40’s (no children). She’ll make it through. The generation after hers probably is going to have survival issues. By that time responsible politicians will be gone too
🙏 hope they can stay safe. The planet is getting hotter. Is not getting better anytime soon
And not there are fears of what these record temps will do to rice crops across the country!
😯awful! It’s humid there.
Jeff i don't mind you used Fahrenheit im on my phone and can do a simple conversion on my phone. What I do mind is CLIMATE CHANGE! 😫
I guess that means it time to increase fossil fuels use!
ohh noo😯
Obviously this is a lie because water boils at 100 deg. And Japan definitely uses a metric system. So checkmate.
This is picked up by an international audience (e.g. me in the UK), 95% of which don't understand these moronic units. A simple conversion to ºC would save a lot of effort and create better engagement. #MoreMetric.
Do the Japanese use Fahrenheit?
107 vs 106 is only half a degree difference in Celsius.
Global warming is real and we are all going to die when the earth stays hot. Sorry 😞
Typhoon season should be fun
Actually no one knows what the temperature was before records were kept.
This All-time bs is just click bait.
Double-Ivy but still can't spell the word "its" 😞
Can we get that in metric? Outside the US, nobody knows what that means
*climate CRISIS. Use your words wisely. Start by using the correct one! We are in a CRISIS, not just change.
Wiw
His,her, its No apostrophe #grammar
Right. Unfortunately the atmosphere is still livable. We have to wait until the extinction to begin again. Go back to your chamber.
107? Is everyone dead?
Nothing to see here. Drill drill drill baby.
Add Japan’s notorious August humidity to the equation and the atmosphere is a pressure cooker—
Wait you mean climate change isnt a hoax?
Fuuuuuuck..... I live in Tucson where we regularly hit 107f, but we have a DRY heat. I CANNOT imagine 107f in the high humidity of a Japanese summer 😭😭 not just brutal, gotta be deadly ~ wet bulb territory
41.7 °C. Més de 10 °C que el que fins ara era habitual. Acompanyat d'una anomalia tèrmica de l'aigua de la mar. No hem posat restriccions radicals a l'emissió de diòxid de carboni i metà i ara ja som dins de la catàstrofe.
Well, according to the Orange farce, if we drill baby drill, dig baby dig, we can use all them fossil fuels to work the Air Conditioning... Maybe we can use huge air conditioning to cool down cities .. just like when I suggested bleach to fight COVID... I have the best ideas... Love me.....
Heat records are being broken with less and less time between them
first of all we use Celsius- and this is not a record. we are used to 42 degrees
What is than in normal measurement?
www.reuters.com/sustainabili...
I can go on
They will say it's because insert some baseless excuse that has been disproven by science years ago here
107 is about an average day here in Arizona summer.
I'm in Phoenix, jealous of Japan: it's currently 113 degrees. It's gonna be 115 degrees tomorrow.
Holy shit 107 is above boiling point.
To republicans its a hoax..but the insurance companies rely on hard data to set their rates and they say climate change is real, and that as predicted, a warming world also brings more frequent and more intense storms globally. Insurance companies leaving Florida and Texas, and higher rates for all.
Yawn. When the sea level changes elevation by, say, 1 foot in 10 years, we will have something to worry about.
41.7°C.
Wow that’s hot so very hot.
Those folks are feeling hot 🥵 hot hot
I can't wait till next year when we break the record again
#ChildrenOfKali
If the ocean is hotter the typhoons an subsequent hurricanes are bigger, badder, an more catastrophic. Bye bye ocean front dwellers !!
Good thing that they will soon be importing Ford F150 monster trucks. This will certainly help them flee the weather apocalypse.

It’s brutal with the humidity. I live in Tokyo and yesterday was probably the hottest day and night I’ve ever experienced
And here we are in the US cancelling all regulations protecting us from climate change. It’s insane!
Damn!
💔
But the USA president says climate change is a hoax and therefore he’s destroying two multimillion dollar satellites to hide his lies.
Wow!
A strong heat ridge to the south is now giving way to a deep trough with gusty winds ahead of it. Nestled in-between mountains, a downslope wind likely amplified the heat through compressional heating. I'll follow up later with an animation.
No one could see this coming.
Correction: EVERYONE could see this coming, explaining why in the US Trump Republicans have been cancelling climate science fast as they can.
The fact that Japan is hitting temperatures that we see the desert but they have insane levels of humidity makes me so uncomfortable. I’m almost glad to live in an oven. I miss the days when this was just for Arizona. Inflicting this heat on the rest of the planet is horrifying.
🥵😱
#EndFossilFuels
We were there a couple of years ago in September. It got up to 36 degrees Celsius. I don't usually sweat at home, but I was an absolute puddle, to the point of having to tie a little towel around my neck. Their heat is different. Those poor people 😬
That's 41 degrees for the rest of us. I read it was 50 in Turkey.
Japan uses the metric system.... It's also an island chain that stretches over 20 degrees of latitude with consequently varied climates.
👹Climate CRISIS us More like it!
Wow!
My kid lives in Osaka... says it's been absolutely brutal.
The evidence is there, but in the U.S. conservative Republicans continue to insist that climate change is a hoax invented by liberals. There is no end to the stupidity.
With their humidity that is no joke. Was there just a couple of weeks ago thinking “I’m from FL so no big deal”. It was brutal and that was at 95 F 🥵
Fake news. Japan is on the metric system. 107° would boil water.
I'm living through it and it's not very enjoyable. I got heat exhaustion last Tuesday after less than 30 minutes (split 10, 5, 10) outside. It's brutal and made worse by the lack of greenery.
Ah. That explains all the fanning and umbrellas I'm seeing in current Japanese YouTube videos.
I mean I can think of a day in history that was much hotter
Poor Japan. Poor all of us with this heat!!. Climate change & prophecy!
“Don’t look up”
😮
Flash flooding caused by a massive cloudburst was filmed wiping out buildings in a Himalayan town in India on Tuesday, as rescuers fear dozens are trapped.
Maybe we need a better myth for REALITY?

I am a reluctant, accidental, and near completely marginalized philosopher of mind. I believe I have a "crazy enough" idea to reinterpret all of hard science, keeping most of the sound and still cogen...
Meanwhile, in Australia, Barnaby leads the charge against Net Zero. The mining magnates provide his foundations
That’s weather not climate
Only 98 here in CA wine country. They have us beat (for now...)
There is no way Japan got over the boiling point of water two weeks in a row...
Next you'll try telling me that's in Fahrenheit- like Japan would ever use that outdated noise.
Fox News: their temperature gauges are too close to dryer vents.
It’s a hoax, right? Just ask the DT.
Everything is ok!
No one listened.
I hope Japan and its population will be safe.
Anyone who doesn’t believe that climate change is happening, and that we’re making it worse, is delusional or stupid. And anyone who know it’s happening but claims it’s not for political or financial gain is beyond EVIL!
The confusion of climate change and weather is one of the major hindrances in getting the reality of climate change accepted. Add in the tendency to call it “global warming” and you make the skeptics job too easy.
I wonder if the nuclear leak after their big earthquake years ago have anything to do with it.
I hear that...🥵🥵🥵🥵
Good , when you catch fish 🐟 they're already half cooked ‼️🤨😂
Wow. It’s urgent.
Allow me to correct to you it's 41°C Which is a lot ... but not as much as 50°C in Turquey this year ; The difference is that we are reaching in some place not a maximum never approch but a limit to life it-self (around 55°C)
I still maintain part of the problem was that originally it was labelled global warming and everyone in the Midwest US heard "you won't have to shovel snow out of your driveway ever again" and so didn't see the problem
That's 41,5⁰C for anyone who doesn't use fahrenheit.
107 degrees. Wow. And that's nothing compared to what next year is gonna be like.
I'd say by 2027 we will have complete societal breakdown.
Japan broke heat record…41.8ºC breaking the previous week record of 41.2ºC…..there fixed that for you….as Japan uses C. Geez, the USA has to get the F out of reporting temperatures;)
Oh, my!
As Trump lowers car emissions regulations for one of the biggest polluting countries on Earth , us !!!!!
Oil coal..greed..why not invent the next propulsion Japan and ditch oil/gas....I wish Shell,Mobil,Chevron,B/P,et al. Would stop the greed steal of oil!!! Mother will bless you and humanity may not go extinct as soon as we will if oil continues
Thanks for bringing this to our attention. My family is planning a trip to Japan at the end of September. Hope the temperatures get cooler by then. How are the locals dealing with it?
It's so hot, even Godzilla decided to stay under the ocean! (I'll see myself out)
Since Japan - like the entire world except the US - uses Celsius, the local temperature was 41.8°. Not 107.
How are the Japanese macaques doing?
107° F is right in line with how hot Chennai, India gets during the dry monsoon.
