今年は 6 月下旬に梅雨が開け、そのことも記録的なのだが、その後気温が高い現象が続いている。連日ニュース等で報道されているが、この猛暑、気温が高い現象は今しばらく続くらしい。朝日ディジタルからの解説図を転用させていただくが、猛暑の原因は大きく張り出した 2 つの高気圧。
It was the record that the rainy season was finished in June more than 22 days earlier than usual. Since then very hot weather has been continuing over Japan. Here I live in the area also recorded the highest temperature more than 40 deg-C this week. The picture here is copied from Asahi news site and explains the reason due to the 2 huge high atmospheric pressure covering over here in Japan.
