Today is 42.2 C for me today. Then you factor humidity on top of that and it becomes like the gates of hell. Then I remember that I live in dallas and I basically already am in hell.
That sucks. Yeah - we have those temps in Texas for months at a time, but at least we have air conditioning most places.
It’s also one of the reasons development is so hostile for pedestrians and cyclists here. We design everything around taking air conditioning with us wherever we go, which leads to car-first development.
Oh shit. Honestly I feel more for you guys than me. We have infrastructure built for it. Everything has AC. I even just put a window unit in my bedroom to take some load off the older main unit that has been struggling to keep up. But over there you were never built for that kind of heat. I wish you all the best with climate change.
European here, just had two weeks of temperatures never going below 30c even at night. I had 34c at 3am the other day… We basically are all in hell at this point.

The European mind can not comprehend…
Friday looks pretty chill. Something to look forward to!

Getting AC where we live is very difficult to install (we have 40 to 50cm thick walls) and expensive to run.
I flew to San Antonio a few yewrs ago. I remember it being about 10 degrees cooler than Tulsa.
I didn’t go outside in Dallas, though.
