  1. #WT35C is, as it were, the leading edge of #ClimateChange, and hard-and-fast physiological metric. Use the web bulb temperature (WT) or STFU. And Celsius. Science demands it!

  2. 10.9 °C on the famous NE Deck and 20.9 in the Computer Suite at #cicnyzskalenjo in Boise, Idaho at 9:00 a.m. MDT. This is not normal four days before the summer equinox.

    As for #WT35C, regular heat waves kill. Atypical ones, too.

  3. @NewScience101 The flip side of #WT35C, so to speak. Very informative, nuanced article!

  4. Pay close attention to #WT35C this year, not the photos of people on beaches or trite illustrations of bursting mercury thermometers.

    A primer:

  5. @statsguy These data being human-readable shall be most informative! Given the trajectory we're on I can only see such #WT35C events occurring more and more frequently... People need to able to see that.

  6. @statsguy The former, as per the Raymond paper. Thanks so much for delving into this!

  7. @beechsundowner Not only are the data extant, we know where and why these #WT35C extremes take place. Too, it's kind of hard to run a society when it's in a sauna.

  8. @beechsundowner Would that there were a website which kept track of #WT35C

  9. @beechsundowner

    Basically the continuing emergence of wet bulb temperatures of 35 ℃ and above.

  10. @statsguy I most definitely don't! As they say, this I leave as an exercise for the reader.

  11. @statsguy All of this is way, way beyond my skill set —it's easy to come up with great ideas! That said, #WT35C has oft been hit, albeit briefly and locally: Persian Gulf... "Other >31°C hotspots in the weather station record emerge through surveying the globally highest 99.9th TW percentiles: eastern coastal India, Pakistan and northwestern India, and the shores of the Red Sea, Gulf of California, and southern Gulf of Mexico". ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/

  12. We're going to be hearing a lot about the heat index, wet bulb thermometers, and —most accurately— the wet-bulb globe temperature (WBGT). #WT35C

  13. @Pampa That's the heat index, not the #WT35C. They don't say where they're getting their data from. They don't even have a Wikipedia page! In any case I'm seeking something of much, much finer granularity, down to the weather station level, and working up an choropleth & chorochromatic maps from that.

  14. Is there global wet bulb tracker or #bot? When places start hitting #WT 35 ℃ I want to know about it.

    What was the highest WT on Earth yesterday, anyone have that data suite...?
