Eh… 100+ degrees is pretty common in much of the US during summer. Every state in the union has broken 100 degrees and the majority do so every year.
The bigger one, is only a handful break 100 degrees and stay there for extend periods. And only a handful break 100 AND have 90% humidity to go along with it.
The Midwest can be a real bitch and give you 100 degrees and 90% humidity one day and snow the next some times. It’s great!
It’s funny, you still see people having a shot about it not being that hot.
That’s a blistering day in Queensland, where I am. With our normal humidity, it kills. I’d imagine Florida would be a good comparison. Sure, I’ve routinely felt 44-45C in summer but fucking hell, in Germany that is truly insane
A comparison would be an above 45C day here.
The other issue too is UV level and how unaccustomed they are to tolerating and preventing that.
I honestly have no idea ay, it’s not my science. I should add as well, we’re currently being battered by solar activity on top of the heat in the northern hemisphere.
I do know the southern hemisphere has higher instances of UV exposure due to it facing the sun more directly in summer.
Insane ay
That’s hot for Australia
Hot for much of the USA, not unheard of but still not to be fucked with heat.

This may be a dumb question but is the UV level necessarily changed by the heat dome?
