Mercury hits 39.5 C in Tokyo, all-time record

Tuesday, July 20, 2004 at 16:11 JST

TOKYO — An unprecedented heat wave hit Tokyo on Tuesday morning, with the mercury hitting an all-time high for the capital at 39.5 C shortly before 1 p.m., topping the previous record of 39.1 C recorded Aug. 3, 1994, the Japan Meteorological Agency said.

The new high was logged at 12:58 p.m. from an observation point in central Tokyo's Otemachi business district as temperatures soared in the Kanto-Koshin region in eastern and central Japan while a high-pressure system blanketed the Japanese archipelago, the agency said. (Kyodo News)

I was in Tokyo on holiday from the 17th to the 23rd of July...

Checking my notes, I would have been walking from Shinonome station to Super Autobacs at that time...and I remember it being obscenely hot. Thank you Japan for having vending machines every five metres.:rofl:
