Heat Stroke Alert

A heat stroke alert has been issued for Chiba Prefecture today.
Do not go outside unnecessarily, and even indoors, be aware of room temperature and drink water frequently.

*Heat Stroke Alerts are issued when the risk of heat stroke is expected to be extremely high, to alert people to the danger of heat stroke, and to encourage them to take action to prevent heat stroke.

If this value is 31 or higher, the risk of heat stroke is high. Heat stroke alerts are issued on a prefectural basis when this value is estimated to be 33 or higher.
