Regions across Japan are getting another day of scorching heat on Sunday.
        
                    
                  
The Meteorological Agency says a high-pressure system is blanketing vast areas from Kyushu to Tohoku causing temperatures to rise.
        
                    
                  
By 12 p.m., the mercury had reached 36 degrees Celsius in many cities, including Otsuki in Yamanashi Prefecture near Tokyo and Dazaifu in Fukuoka Prefecture in western Japan.
        
                    
                  
And in the afternoon that could reach 38 degrees in parts of Gunma and Saitama prefectures.
Heatstroke alerts have been issued in 26 prefectures.
        
                    
                  
Meanwhile, a front stretching from a low-pressure system has developed rain clouds over northern Japan.
        
                    
                  
As of 11 a.m., Teshio, Hokkaido had recorded 153.5 millimeters of rain in 12 hours--the highest figure on record.
