11月の最高気温更新 (New Records of Maximum Temperature in November)

　全国的に晴天になった昨10月4日、鹿児島県伊仙町での29.4度など、西日本を中心に70ヵ所以上で11月の最高気温を記録したという。わが堺市でも26.8度の記録を生んだ。今年は平年よりも大陸側からの寒気が弱いことが理由とされている。（写真は大鳥駅近くの高層住宅の庭園で同日に撮影。）

Yesterday (October 4), it became sunny nationwide. At more than 70 locations mainly in West Japan, the maximum temperature record in November was renewed; for example, 29.4 degrees in Isen-cho, Kagoshima. Our city of Sakai also produced the new record of 26.8 degrees. The reason is attributed to the fact that cold air from the continent is weaker this year than usual.
