Good morning from Tokyo. Hot, hot, hot, too hot!
Today, the Japanese Government has issued a Heatstroke Alert for the Tokyo Metropolitan area again. According to the forecast, today’s maximum temperature in Tokyo is 37 °C (98.6 °F), it’s almost body heat. In Saitama, Kumagaya and Maebashi in Gunma, it will expect to be 38 °C (100.4 °F). Wow.

Corona in Japan. According to NHK, yesterday’s new cases were 839 across the country. (Asahi Shimbun reported as 840.)
The Metropolitan area. Tokyo 197, Kanagawa 38, Saitama 42, Chiba 41.
Chubu area. Aichi 101.

About the infection cluster (outbreak) in a private high school in Shimane which I posted yesterday. It is pointed out on the social media that there were some fatal issues with the school’s guidance and management.

This morning’s music. I chose Brahms again. Today I took the great album of L’Archibudelli. They performe Brahms’ wonderful 2 String Sextets on this album. L’Archibudelli was an ensemble group founded by the great cellist Anner Bylsma (1934-2019). This Brahms album is stunning, it’s also my favorite.
