Weather forecasts predict a return of the intense heatwave in Japan's Kanto region, threatening to rise up to 35℃ on the 14th day of the month. Following a brief respite, the residents are bracing for the rising temperatures in an area already struggling with the summer heat. Local authorities are advising residents to take necessary precautions to avoid heat-related illnesses.

In Japan, seasonal heatwaves are a serious concern for public health. People wear breathable clothing, drink plenty of water, and stay in air-conditioned spaces when possible. Local governments provide cooling centers for vulnerable groups such as the elderly and homeless. News updates about weather forecasts and preventive measures are regularly broadcasted on regional and national networks.

In the US and EU, heatwaves are also considered serious hazards but the response might differ depending on the local climate. Cooling centers and public health advisories are also typical in these regions during extreme heat. The mitigation strategies might range from heat action plans to infrastructure designed to combat increasing temperatures due to climate change.
