It was hitting the Americas and the Pacific. And both hemispheres, so north and south alike. That’s because that side of the Earth was facing the sun at that time. I assume the south received the brunt of it due to the axial tilt going into southern summer.
So it was not the entire planet, just the two hemispheres of North and South and specifically mostly the Americas and the Pacific.
So it was only one hemisphere, but instead of being clear and specifying actual locations, the vague description suggests the whole planet was affected. How unhelpful.
Is there any point to this distinction? Why not just say “the entire planet”?

Across 4 quadrispheres
Across the mono-unisphere
Perhaps it did not substantially fill both hemispheres. Or perhaps they are referring to overlapping hemispheres like the north and west.
