muikabochi 208 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 The last few days haven't been as brutal especially in the evenings and actually last night for the first time in a long while we didn't have the aircon going late night. So there are signs of things starting to cool down. I hope it's not just a blip. Let's abandon that horrid old "Hot" thread! Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Still very hot for me. Cooling down signs are not too soon, that's for sure. Link to post Share on other sites
Chriselle 158 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 I only know today's and tomorrow's forecast.....and that is for mid summer heat. After that ... lets hope for a cooling trend. Nights are a little better lately though. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted September 4, 2012 Author Share Posted September 4, 2012 Yes it's definitely not cool yet. I was just pointing out a few real, if small, positive signs from the inaka. Link to post Share on other sites
tokabochi 9 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Still a high of 33 forecast for here unfortunately. Yesterday evening was actually fairly comfortable though. Link to post Share on other sites
ippy 66 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 cooling in nagano for sure. In fact, i declare september 1st the official death of summer. Yay! Anecdotal evidence #1: Ive used my quilt for all of the last three days. Anecdotal evidence #2: Frogs are sitting on my bike in the morning. Anecdotal evidence #3: After a shower ive started once again to dry INSIDE the shower because its too fekkin cold once i step out of the shower. Anecdotal evidence #4: I am not arriving a work after my 5k bike ride drenched in sweat. Anecdotal evidence #5: I saw a temp reading of 24 degrees two days ago. Anecdotal evidence #6: It was rather pleasant this morning. Its cooling pretty rapidly here to be honest. Soon ill be moaning about the walk in freezer i appear to be living in.

Anecdotal evidence #4: I am not arriving a work after my 5k bike ride drenched in sweat. I certainly wouldn't go that far! Still way too hot for me - tell me it's "cool" when it gets to a consistent 20 degrees in the daytime with no humidity! Link to post Share on other sites

ippy 66 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 only 350m. Im in a massive bowl though with mountains (well, hills (around 1,500m)), all around me. Link to post Share on other sites

7-11 2 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Is that a humungously giant god looking down upon the bowl? Link to post Share on other sites
Sciclone 2 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 It barely drops below 20deg in winter here (well during the day at least). I see Takamagahara has an average of about 14deg forecast for the next week, with 10degs toward the end of the week. I still question why I continue to live in a sub-tropical climate when I don't take the heat very well. Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Had cooled down here too, with the last few days in the high 20s only and down to 18 at night, but hot as hell in the sun today again. It also feels humid again after several zero humiity days. Will cool more from this saturday before a hot blip aain next week and then we are on a downward trend after that.

big-will 7 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Bit less oppressive today. Link to post Share on other sites
ippy 66 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 When i first arrived in japan one of my teachers told me that from september every time it rains it gets a little colder. Its kind of a truism of course since time kind of works in teh manner that we're leaving summer every day after august, but i think what he meant is that when it rains the momentum speeds up. Old wives tale science but i like farmer wisdom. (not that hes a farmer of course). 1 Link to post Share on other sites
