And the East coast and parts of Europe are also flooding out and so was Japan this summer, and Asia and Russia. So, this summer (at least in the northern Hemisphere) the world is burning up and flooding out. This is the reality. Have you ever heard of a temperature in London of 91 degrees? Ever? Have you ever heard of a temperature of 118 degrees with full humidity in Portugal? And a similar thing that put 30,000 in the hospital in Japan while killing many many people there?
In a place like Death Valley, California, you might survive 127 degrees because you aren't going to go there without air conditioning, because otherwise you are just going to die their very long outside of your car. But, when you combine humidity of 70% or higher and 118 degrees people are going to be dying right and left in the monsoon areas of the world with temperatures this high without air conditioning. And the problem is if you aren't aware just how overheated you are until it's too late you are just dead because the first thing to go is your brain and rational thought.
So, unless you know what the temperatures are going to be, and you prepare for humidity and temperatures like this and are not just macho or something you are likely not going to survive these temperatures with humidity unless you prepare for them. And if you are out of doors with no shelter when they happen then it's a "Good-Bye" and nothing else, or someone picks up your body and takes it to a hospital where there is air conditioning and you survive maybe with a headache for 3 or 4 days.
In southern California and Arizona and New Mexico in the 1950s I was one of these people with a headache for 3 or 4 days as a child. This was just what people did then without air conditioning. People died then too. Only the most resourceful people on earth have ever survived here by the way.
People tend to forget this and don't realize just how much misery our ancestors went through before this.
Do you really think ANYONE had air conditioning before the 20th century? No. They didn't anywhere. People just either found a way to survive anything that happened or they died, without hospitals or doctors most places on earth.
By the way there is a reason why they call Death Valley Death Valley. It is because in the 1800s if you went there in the summer time, you died. It is below sea level and a desert and in the summers this is a killing combination almost always (without air conditioning).
