Yesterday was the hottest day here this year so far

Wurst thing was weather reps promised rain and thunder for the evening, but it only came late at night

[Bereta_Eder]

Large fires in rhodes


greeks falling over to help the brits

why?

[Bereta_Eder]

if they were germans or french , I get it

but brits?
come on

they share a greek salad amongst 5

Youtube video helps explain the panic, apparently a news agency got data on ground temperature showing 48 C whereas normal weather reports give the air temperature 6' above the ground where it would be ~32 C

so like when its really hot, say 100 F for a football game the turf is even hotter, like 120-130 F

[Bereta_Eder]

19,000 brits evacuated without a single death amongst raging fires

that west considers as success
but hindus consider as failure? maybe

[Berzerker]

I worked in a semi open air warehouse near Phoenix 40 years ago where it would hit 125 F inside, fans kept the air moving and it was so dry I'd argue 100 F and humid is worse

[Bereta_Eder]

humididty does make everything worse

I posptponed my visit to NYC because of that

[Bereta_Eder]

it makes ity worse for you. it is insufferable

for forest fires humidity is better than 0% humidity that reigns all over Greece
(which is th ebest weather ever everywhere btw)

[Bereta_Eder]

I'm not saying climate change or anything

But I don're remember such persistent high temps. Thankfully Greece is in a position to not give a freck with ACs etc

but i don't remember that hiogh temps for so long persistent

it is still better to have that high temp WITHOUT humidity (there is 0% humidicty but that makes forests turn ablaze much easier)

[Berzerker]

speaking of 100 and humid, all this week... Heat index will hit over 110

[Bereta_Eder]

Greece is 0% humid


when people started arriving in europe, greeks were the first. so they picked the best lands.


go ask the finns how they like their country

[Bereta_Eder]

but htat does make forest fires way more likely
