The article reports on Japan's yearly weather spectacle, encompassing heatwaves, the rainy season (known as Tsuyu), and typhoons. Experts provide assessments and predictions for these phenomena and their potential impact in the country for the current year. The goal is to foster preparedness among people and authorities, and to analyze any irregular trends referencing climate change.

Weather phenomenons such as heatwaves, Tsuyu, and typhoons hold great significance in Japan due to their impact on daily life, agriculture, and businesses. They are also intrinsic parts of their cultural narrative. Alerts and predictive reports are widely and closely followed by the Japanese both for safety reasons and for planning events and activities. The interest also extends to the link of these events with climate change, an issue the Japanese society cares deeply about.

Unlike Japan, the US and EU have a different set of weather challenges. In the US, attention typically focuses on hurricanes, wildfires, and winter storms while in EU, heatwaves, cold spells, and flash floods are more common. However, the concern about preparedness, safety measures, and the impacts of climate change are shared among these societies.
