At least 18 people died in France, including two children left in a hot car, as a heat wave gripped Europe and smashed temperature records in several cities Monday.
As schools in France closed or modified their schedules, forecasters in Britain predicted temperatures could break June records this week.
The temperature in Bordeaux in France’s western wine country rose to 41.9 C, breaking a record set last August. In Poitiers, in central France, it reached 41.2 C, surpassing a previous high set in 1947.
I knew a girl from texas, we sometimes played video games together. She kept telling me that it’s not even that hot, it’s way hotter in texas. I asked her how they even deal with that heat, because it’s 10 degrees cooler here and i almost die until i reach the forrest when i go outside. She was like: tsss, we don’t go outside, we are at home with the AC running, AC in the car and go to the AC mall. Oh, so you deal with tye problem by not dealimg with it.
So fun fact I moved to New England from Texas (Denton) and let me tell u the HOT HUMID shitty parts of August imo felt worse in new england than the 100° dry heat in Texas! Yes sometimes in Texas it got muggy too then it was hell and u parked ur ass inside but I was surprised with the humid heat in the northeast! France is seeing 105-106 f heat now, which if dry as Arizona isn’t too bad here and there but if their acompanied by any humidity too your sweat cannot cool u off and u just fucking fry!
and by increasing the problem
Too hot outside, better sit inside and run a machine that moves heat from inside to outside while also producing waste heat as well!
Yes. The alternative is suffering.
Personally when it gets that hot I take a ride to one of my local swimming holes, most are fed by mountain streams and are CHILLY no matter how hot it is outside! But yea not much alternative some days
