Beware of the ‘Guerrilla’ heavy rain

It's already the final week of July.
We had a nice and cool few day last week caused by a typhoon but now we are back to the normal high heat.

The high heat will continue for another month and then the ‘Guerrilla’ heavy rain will hit us sometime soon.
I don't know when we started to call this ‘Guerilla’ heavy rain but when you experience it, the name is fitting I think.

The picture of the thunder cloud was taken at Yatsugatake. If you see these clouds in the sky, you had better escape!

I wonder how many ‘Guerrilla’ heavy rains will hit us this year?

What will be the weather for Tanabata?

Tanabata(七夕, meaning "Evening of the seventh") is a Japanese Star festival originating from Chinese legend. It celebrates the meeting of Orihime and Hikoboshi.
According to legend, the Milky Way (a river of stars that crosses the sky) separates these two lovers and they are allowed to meet only once a year on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month of the lunar calendar.
The celebration is held at night and it must be a clear evening to view the stars.

In present-day Japan, people generally celebrate this day by writing wishes, sometimes in the form of poetry, on tanzaku (短冊), small pieces of paper, and hanging them on bamboo, sometimes with other decorations.

I saw some bamboo trees at Zojoji and Tanzaku swinging in the wind in this extremely hot weather.



According to meteorological data, in the last 10 years we have been able to see the Milky Way only once or twice during Tanabata.
Although we have extreme Summer heat, the rainy season is not officially over yet so there will be a low probability of a clear night.

Well, what will be the weather for Tanabata ?
