  1. I remember when we used to have nice days in the summertime.

    Now we have "less than lethal" #WetBulb climate

    And Amazon wants to hard boil every last egg on this planet, and speedrunning that endgame.

    Everyone that uses #Amazon fuck you

  5. 🌡️ The current heatwave in Asia is really troubling. It is one of the worst in recorded history.

    From South East Asia to the Indian Subcontinent to West Asia, no country is being is being spared.

    The record maximums are in high 40s in many regions and the most terrifying is the record minimums, with many regions have over 30 C night temps.

    ☀️ Day: 47.5 in Nawabshah, Pakistan
    🌑 Night: 34.3C in Khassab, Oman

  7. THE HEAT IS ON!

    The #Heat #Advisory today could be expanded to an #Extreme Heat #Warning for the southern half of the #Northland Friday afternoon and evening. The feel like #temperature could be around 100°, with #wetbulb globe temperatures in the upper half of the 80s.

    Overall, the next few days will be handled best with plenty of #water, shade, and rest in cool places.

  8. @ai6yr There is high danger of a mass #casualty “wet-bulb event” in Turkey and elsewhere that hit 50 C high temperatures! The chart in the attached picture show the relationship between temperature and relative humidity. Short story: very high temperatures and even moderate humidity will kill you because you can’t cool your body core by perspiration. That’s the red area in the chart. Human physiology varies; that’s why there is a wide yellow line. How long you can survive is also a variable. With the #ClimateCrisis , it is question of when — not if — a #wetbulb catastrophe will occur. Anyone caught without A/C in one of those areas will die if it lasts very long. Is this what will stir people into action? A fictional, but scientifically accurate, depiction of a wet-bulb event is the first chapter in “Ministry of the Future” by Kim Stanley Robinson.

  10. @DoomsdaysCW #WetBulb has just a few issues:
    1) The name is like something from the Japanese AV industry.
    2) The definition is so complex that people who aren't into #STEM can't really imagine it.
    3) The conspiracy-minded redneck will tell you that it's like a sauna and you're a snowflake because he once went to a sauna and nothing happened to him.

  12. Forget #HeatIndex. #WetBulb Globe Temperature Is Where It’s At.

    "One of the most common terms we hear during the summer when discussing the weather is Heat Index. While the Heat Index can give you an idea of how dangerous the heat can be, there is another lesser known variable that may give a complete description, known as the #WetBulbGlobeTemperature.

    "The Heat Index is a measure of how hot it feels to the human body, taking into account the temperature and the relative humidity. The higher either one value is, the higher the heat index and the greater the stress exerted on the body. Heat Index utilizes the temperature measured in the shade and therefore will likely be greater in the sun, where many activities take place. For temperatures taken in the full sunlight, Heat Indices can increase as much as 15°F. Humidity plays a major effect on cooling the body. If the humidity is high, sweat on the surface of the skin does not evaporate as quickly, slowing the cooling of the body. If the humidity is low, sweat evaporates too fast, leading to dehydration. [See link for Heat Index chart]

    "Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (#WBGT) is similar to the Heat Index in that it is an indicator of the stress on the body from the heat. While it is not as well-known as the Heat Index, it’s not a new term. WBGT was developed in the 1950s after heat related illnesses affected the US armed services during the 1940s. After its implementation, there was a reduction in heat related illnesses during basic training. One fundamental difference between the Heat Index and WBGT is that the latter is calculated with the temperature measured in the sun. While Heat Index only takes temperature and Relative Humidity into account, WBGT takes several variables into account.

    These variables include:

    - Temperature
    - Humidity
    - Wind Speed
    - Sun Angle
    - Cloud Cover
    - Physical Activity"

  16. #HeatIndex versus #WetBulb temperatures

    The world needs a new way to talk about heat

    by Michael J. Coren
    July 25, 2023

    "[The heat index] warning system is not perfect. First, it assumes you’re resting in the shade, not working in the sun. If you’re exerting yourself outdoors, the effective heat index could be 15 degrees higher. Secondly, the heat index was built on the idea of a young and healthy adult — a bad assumption for the elderly, very young and sick."

  18. #USWeather: Over 2,800 #HighTemperature records set during #HeatWave

    A week-long heat wave set over 2,800 record high temperatures in towns across the nation, with some spots measuring their hottest June or all-time temperatures.

    By Jesse Ferrell & Brian Lada
    Published Jun 23, 2025

    "A total of 955 daily high temperature records and 1,899 daily high minimum (warm night) records were tied or broken during the last week's heat wave.

    "Records dating back to the 1800s were shattered as an early-summer heat wave roasted large areas of the central and eastern United States. AccuWeather RealFeel® Temperatures blew past the 100-degree mark, air conditioners were on full blast, and cities opened cooling centers to help people cope with the intense heat.

    " 'This is an incredibly hot and steamy heat wave for the month of June,' AccuWeather Chief On-Air Meteorologist Bernie Rayno said.

    Tuesday's heat breaks 137-year-old record

    "The heat wave peaked on Tuesday, and it wasn't just the hottest day of 2025, but the hottest weather many residents in the Northeast have experienced in over a decade.

    "The mercury soared to 102 degrees in Boston on Tuesday afternoon, making it the hottest day in the city since July 22, 2011, when it reached 103. Philadelphia also notched its first 100-degree day since July 18, 2012.

    "In New York City, the temperature fell just shy of hitting triple digits, but the high of 99 degrees was still enough to beat the previous daily record for the date, surpassing the high of 96 degrees set on June 24, 1888. Some areas not far from Central Park, where the official weather observations for the city are taken, did manage to hit 100 degrees, including Newark (103) and John F. Kennedy International Airport (102).

    "Other cities across the region that reached 100 F on Tuesday afternoon include Hartford, Connecticut; Providence, Rhode Island; Wilmington and Dover, Delaware; and Manchester, New Hampshire.

    "Monthly and hourly records were also set

    "Illustrating how unusual and early the heat wave was, a thermometer in #AugustaME, recorded 100 degrees, tying their all-time record high set on Aug. 5, 1955. It joined 13 other stations where the temperature had never been recorded hotter.

    "Many cities had never been as hot in June as they were Tuesday. Stations reporting their hottest June temperatures on record include #NewarkNJ, at 103 (tied); #NewYorkCity (Kennedy & LaGuardia at 102 and 101, a tie); Islip, New York at 101; Portland and #BangorME, at 99 and 98, a tie; and Mount Pocono, Pennsylvania, at 93, recorded on Monday. A total of 90 stations set June records.

    "The heat came early in the day, with #Philadelphia setting or tying new hourly record highs for 9 a.m., 7 a.m., and 5 a.m., and New York City (JFK Airport) notching new or tied extreme highs at 3 a.m., 8 a.m., 1 p.m., 4 p.m., and 5 p.m, according to the Iowa Environmental Mesonet. For June, Philadelphia's hourly temperatures had never been higher for all but two hours of the day.

    Monday's records

    "The first full week of astronomical summer wasted no time warming up, with many thermometers across the region reaching levels they haven't hit in years.

    "#Baltimore's Inner Harbor was one of the hottest spots on Monday, with a high of 104 F. The high humidity and strong summer sun made it dangerously hot outside, with the AccuWeather RealFeel® Temperature topping out at 113 degrees. To put this heat into perspective, 113 degrees is the historical average high temperature in Death Valley in mid-June.

    "#NewarkNJ, reached 101 degrees, breaking its daily record of 99, and #RaleighNC, tied its daily record of 100, set last year.

    "Although other weather stations broke records, they were all below 100 degrees. Most notably, the temperature at Mount Pocono, Pennsylvania, rose to 93 degrees, breaking the daily record and setting June's highest reading. This was the first 90-degree day at Mount Pocono since 2013.

    Sunday's records

    "On Sunday, three weather stations broke the high temperature records for the date. Alpena, Michigan, hit 97 degrees Fahrenheit, breaking the previous record of 93 set in 1975. In #ValleyNE, the mercury pushed up to 94 degrees, breaking the old record of 91 from 2023. And in #MarquetteMI, the old record of 90 degrees, on this date in 1995, was smashed by a reading of 93.

    "But it wasn't just daily record highs. Records for warm nights were also broken at breakneck speed. Saturday night tied the all-time high minimum historical record for Green Bay, Wisconsin, at 79 degrees, previously achieved in July 4, 1897, and July 30, 1916. Wausau, Wisconsin, didn't cool below 78 degrees, which had previously happened only on July 4, 1999. The fact that these records were previously recorded in July is an indicator of how early this severe heat wave is.

    "Record warm nights for June were also set at La Crosse, Wisconsin, (80 degrees) and Mason City, Iowa, (77 degrees) Saturday night.

    "A total of 255 record warm nights for June were recorded over the last week, with 59 of those new records the warmest nights ever recorded at the stations."

  22. A favorite of mine, Windy.com -- which has had significant upgrades!

    "In 2021, two new #ICON forecast models were integrated - ICON-D2 with local coverage for central and west #Europe and ICON Global. Thousands of new air quality stations monitoring primary pollutants worldwide were added from our partners #OpenAQ and #PurpleAir to fight #AirInequality.

    "Several new layers were launched - Tidal currents featuring high-resolution data; the Sea currents dataset was updated; Thermals layer with soaring forecast for glider and paraglider pilots; Drought monitoring layers - Soil moisture, Moisture anomaly, and #Drought intensity, monitoring global drought.

    "We also expanded into the wear OS category and introduced Windy Apple Watch App. The 3D Globe mode was brought back for most layers (desktop only), including the Hurricane Tracker.

    "In 2022, we launched several new features and improved existing ones. In the beginning of the year, we added a new #radioactivity set of stations as a POI overlay and partnered with SaveEcoBot, run by a non-profit organisation SaveDnipro, and obtained a broad spectrum of environmental data sources in #Ukraine and offer them in an easy-to-access way to our users and other affected communities for free.
    New local models HRRR for the US and ACCESS model for Australia were added, along with a set of layers wet-bulb temperature, UV Index and Solar power.
    With release of iOS16, the Windy.com iOS app got LockScreen widgets, which can be placed on the phones's locked screen. A new significant iOS feature.

    "For the #HurricaneSeason, we launched redesigned and upgraded our Hurricane Tracker and added multimodel forecast & LIVE satellite visualization. Users in the US could also appreciate an improved radar resolution and coverage."

  28. #WetBulb Globe Temperature (Prototype-Under Development. Not to be used for operational use)

    "The WetBulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) is a measure of the heat stress in direct sunlight, which takes into account: temperature, humidity, wind speed, sun angle and cloud cover (solar radiation). This differs from the heat index, which takes into consideration temperature and humidity and is calculated for shady areas. If you work or exercise in direct sunlight, this is a good element to monitor. Military agencies, OSHA and many nations use the WBGT as a guide to managing workload in direct sunlight."
