Are you ready for the Japanese summer?

Wow, my family_in-law live in Toyama, which is right next to Takaoka, the town mentioned in the article. And I am really sorry for them. We actually spoke on skype and they didn't seem bothered that much - everything is air-conditioned, so it is alright.

But I remember my own experiences of Japanese heat and it is horrible. Because of the humidity, for me anything that is hotter than +30 Celcious was difficult and anything above +32 was simply unbarable. That is of course when you are outside, when you are in a air-conditioned space of an office, home or a car, you don't care.

So, to answer your question, no I am not ready for the Japanese Summer and to be honest, I have no idea what it is like to experience +37 in Japan.

It's terrible. I came form a warm country, but the humidity levels there were much lower. In my first summer, I lost my appetite, and lost sleep too. Spent most of the time indoors. Worst of all, it is hot and stuffy from around 4:30 in the morning, until late night.

I am not ready for the Japanese summer. My air conditioner is broken and it needs repair.

And you are not that far from Toyama and Takaoka where there were record high 37 degrees Celcious just a few days ago!

hehe my air conditioner will be repaired tomorrow at last. I am happy !
