Is the Prime Meridian actually a galvanised steel grating for rain water?

A hand drawn map that appears in a manuscript that accounts the experience of four Japanese fishermen who got lost on their way to Edo in 1793. After drifting for six months they made landfall on one of the Aleutian Islands, where they were found by Russians who took them to Irtutsk where they spent nine years. Eventually they were called to St. Petersburg. There they joined the first Russian round-the-world voyage which after 16 months, brought the fisherman back to Japan, landing in Nagasaki in 1804.

Exceptional Asia heat demolishes national records for November. (Washington Post)

November opened with a slew of heat records from North Africa to East Asia as abnormal warmth swelled over the Eastern Hemisphere. The exceptional warmth is a recurring theme in 2023, which is poised to become the hottest year on record for the planet.

Thousands of calendar-day records were set Wednesday in the Eastern Hemisphere, and temperatures soared to the highest November level ever observed in at least eight countries: the Philippines, Tunisia, Bangladesh, Cyprus, Malta, South Korea, North Korea and Mongolia.

High temperatures ranged from the low 70s in Mongolia to the mid-80s in Russia and up to nearly 100 in the Philippines. These temperatures were as much as 20 to 35 degrees above normal.

Between Wednesday and Thursday, 906 locations in China recorded their highest November temperatures on record. It’s “[t]he most extreme event in Chinese climatic history,” wrote weather historian Maximiliano Herrera on X, formerly Twitter.
