thirty people are reported to have died as a result of the heat over the last fortnight in the city of kyotosecutive days. the heatwave is also complicating recovery efforts in the west of the country, where around two hundred people died in floods earlier this month. olivia crellin reports. earlier this month, western japan looked like this. after being buffeted by severe storms and waves of up to nine metres. now, the waves look somewhat more inviting as temperatures have rocketed to over a0 celsius in some parts. a five—year nationwide high. translation: it's hot all overjapan. it was 39 celsius yesterday, and the day before. when i was a kid the hottest day was about 33 degrees. the recent climate is surely abnormal. it's a dangerous high. the heat wave has already killed about 30 people. and with thousands hospitalized for heat—related conditions, authorities are urging people to stay hydrated. translation: my job is demanding so i make sure to drink lots water. that advice is even more challenging for the volunteers taking part in flood recovery afterwards. the rain that pounded japan

yesterday we had the highest temperature ever recorded injapan north of tokyo and in the city of kyotoher record, seven days unbroken of temperatures above 38 degrees. this is because a large area of high pressure is sitting over the top of japan, has been since the beginning of the month, and it is not moving. modern buildings are well equipped. air conditioning is normal. if you live in a modern apartment building 01’ live in a modern apartment building ora live in a modern apartment building or a modern office, it is not a huge problem. lots of all the buildings, particularly schools and houses, are not equipped for this sort of heat. the heat of the summer he does get up the heat of the summer he does get up to the mid— 30s regularly for a day or two and then it does drop back down. then people can call. i think it is notjust the height of the heat. it is the fact that it is going on and on. and it is not getting cool at night. people are not getting a chance to cool down at night and that is having a very dangerous affect on old people's hell. we understand at least half of those

so election night 2016 was bright daylight for me in kyoto where i had just arrived for an award ceremony after a joyful sendoff from my colleagues at home. i was feeling pretty anxious about the a bittererly divided elect rate -- bitterly divided electorate9 and yet reasonably confident that appeals to fear and anger would be repudiated although there would be a lot of difficult work ahead to bring americans together. my japanese hosts came in and out of my hotel room explaining the schedule of the various ceremonial events. in the background of these conversations but in the foreground of my mind, the election news kept coming in producing, first, increasing alarm and then finally both grief and a deeper fear for the country and its people and institutions. i was aware that my fear was not balanced or fair-minded, so i was part of the problem that i was worried about. by the time the election result was clear, i had to go out to have my first official meeting at the offices of the foundation, so i dressed up in a cheerful suit, fixed my hair and tried to express happiness and gratitude.

even around kyoto, 25 inches. here are some of the problems.d y this. the people have set up some shelters for people who are displaced or don't know where to go. that is the good news. the concern now moves to super typhoon maria. while it is expected to remain south, same areas are not expected to take a direct hit and some of the outer bands are expected to push more moisture back into the same locations that have already had rain. so, unfortunately, we have rain, say, in this area in the forecast for at least the next seven days. folks there are still going to stay on high alert as additional rainfall may return. >> allison chinchar, thank you so much. >>> wildfires are spreading fast across parts of the western united states. now one person was killed in the fire. this was near california's border with oregon. the fires have consumed dozens of homes. thousands of people have been forced to evacuate. record high temperatures are fueling the fires as southern california is face ago heat wave. the temperature in some places have reached 116 d
