[1-month forecast] Temperatures are higher than normal in northern, eastern, and western Japan. Take precautions against heat stroke

2026/07/03 23:49

The Japan Meteorological Agency announced the forecast for the month from July 4th to August 3rd on the 2nd (Thursday).

For the next month, northern, eastern, and western Japan will likely be covered in warm air, and temperatures are expected to be high.
The Pacific side of eastern Japan and western Japan will be less affected by the seasonal rain front and humid air during the first half of the period, so precipitation will be at or below normal.



Prediction results from the numerical forecast model.
The monthly average sea level pressure (figure on the left) predicts that eastern and western Japan will be covered by the Pacific anticyclone, and the Pacific side of eastern Japan and western Japan will be less affected by the seasonal rain front and humid air during the first half of the period. On the other hand, atmospheric pressure is predicted to be lower than normal in the south of Japan, and Okinawa and Amami are expected to experience periods when they are susceptible to the effects of humid air.

The temperature at an altitude of approximately 1,500 meters (right chart) is predicted to be higher than normal in northern, eastern, and western Japan, and will likely be covered in warm air.




Forecast of average temperature, precipitation, and sunshine hours for the next month, and weekly average temperature (probability of occurrence (%)).

Northern, eastern, and western Japan are likely to be covered by warm air, so temperatures will be high over the next month. Temperatures can be quite high, especially during the first half of the period.
In Okinawa and Amami, it will be about normal.

The Pacific side of eastern Japan and western Japan will be less affected by the seasonal rain front and humid air during the first half of the period, so precipitation over the next month will be at or below normal.
Okinawa/Amami has periods where it is susceptible to humid air, so precipitation over the next month will be at or above normal.

Sunshine hours will be about average.


The Pacific side of eastern Japan and western Japan are not expected to be affected by the rainy season front in the first half of the period, but there is a possibility of locally heavy rain during the rainy season. Don't forget to prepare for heavy rain disasters and check the latest weather information.

In addition, temperatures are expected to be higher than normal in northern, eastern, and western Japan. The heat of summer is finally upon us, but your body is still not used to the heat, so please take precautions against heat stroke, such as hydrating frequently, taking breaks, and using the air conditioner even indoors.
Please check the "Heatstroke Warning Alert" jointly announced by the Japan Meteorological Agency and the Ministry of the Environment, and take active measures to prevent heatstroke, such as canceling outdoor activities on the day of the announcement.

Northern Kyushu region: Heavy rain likely again from today (Friday) night to 5th (Sunday) Beware of landslides and landslides

2026/07/03 11:55

The rainy season front extends from central China, through the Kyushu region, and into the far east of Japan.



The front is expected to slowly move north toward the Tsushima Strait over the 4th. In northern Kyushu, warm, humid air is expected to flow toward the front, making atmospheric conditions extremely unstable.



As a result, cumulonimbus clouds will develop locally in the northern Kyushu region from the beginning of the night of the 3rd to the 5th, and there is a risk of severe gusts such as lightning and tornadoes.
In northern Kyushu, rainfall could reach up to 150 mm by the night of the 3rd. Please pay attention to the latest information.
Also, if there are signs of a developed cumulonimbus cloud approaching, please take every precaution to ensure your safety by moving inside a building.



A linear precipitation band occurred in northern Kyushu yesterday, the 2nd (Thursday).
There are places where the risk of landslides suddenly increases even with less rainfall compared to previous heavy rains.
Please be careful about steep slopes, cliffs, etc. within your living area.

The weather for the next week is expected to be sunny in many places in northern and eastern Japan on Saturday the 4th, with many cloudy and rainy days after that.
Western Japan will continue to experience rainy days after the weekend, and there will likely be periods of sunshine in the middle of next week.
Okinawa/Amami, where the end of the rainy season has already been announced, is expected to be covered in high pressure and have many sunny days.



Tomorrow, the 3rd (Friday), the low pressure system will move away to the east of Japan, and the seasonal rain front will move south from near Honshu. On the other hand, there is a high pressure system near the Chishima Islands, which is expected to cover the area around Hokkaido.

Hokkaido will be sunny mainly on the Sea of Japan side.
There will be a trough in the atmospheric pressure near Honshu, and clouds are expected to spread easily.
It will rain in places in southern Tohoku, Hokuriku, Kanto-Koshin, and Tokai. Even if it's not raining when you go out, it's safe to have rain gear.
Although clouds tend to spread over the Kinki, Chugoku, and Shikoku regions, there are likely to be periods of sunshine.
In Kyushu, the rainy weather will continue due to the influence of the rainy season front.
Okinawa/Amami, where the end of the rainy season has already been announced, is expected to be covered in high pressure and clear skies.



On the 4th (Saturday), western Japan will continue to be affected by the front and it will rain. There will be periods of sunshine in northern and eastern Japan.

From the 7th (Tuesday) onwards, clouds will tend to spread over western Japan, but it will be less affected by the front and there will likely be periods of sunshine. The front will move northward, bringing rainy weather to northern and eastern Japan. There will also be a trough in the atmospheric pressure in Hokkaido, and it is likely to rain from the 8th (Wednesday) to the 9th (Thursday).

Typhoon Barbie occurred in the Marshall Islands today, the 2nd (Thursday). Although the typhoon's path still varies, there is a possibility that it will affect Okinawa in the second half of next week. Please pay attention to future information.

In Kyushu and Okinawa, it is likely to be a midsummer day with temperatures exceeding 30c every day.
On rainy and humid days, it is difficult for sweat to evaporate and body temperature does not drop, increasing the risk of heatstroke. Even on days with little sunlight, please take precautions against heat stroke, such as hydrating frequently and taking breaks.
