Bad headline but interesting article. Definitely shows that some of the reporting on this topic has been very misleading—especially the suggestion that drier climates won’t experience these dangerous conditions.
Will look forward to a new map beyond just wet bulb temperatures that shows the real distribution of future heat danger.
I’m pretty sure Saunas have existed for a long time.
Alright, but imagine saunas that don’t have an exit.
Damn but then how will I jump in the snow before coming back?
You don’t, and it’s summer outside, no snow.
The take-away is that higher temperatures with low humidity are more deadly than previously thought, so that you can have deadly heat below the wet bulb threshold.
