I appreciate what you're trying to do here wrt to models SirPablo, but really we just enjoy shitposting extreme runs from twitter and thinking, "huh that would be crazy" and then waiting a week to see if some weather person on twitter tells it's actually going to happen. Simple pleasures, my friend.

i imagine a lot of stuff just straight up breaks when things get 10c hotter than they've ever been before the train system here shits out pretty reliably whenever it goes over 40, and we usually get a few of those every summer

They started building it in the late 1820s op. It was shut down to cars in 2019, shut down to cars and pedestrians in 2020, and resumed limited use last year (cracks in it)

I've gone to bed with an ice pack but I'm still dripping sweat and unable to sleep, unlike the loving fly that's made itself at home with all the open windows

If only there were some sort of device that could be installed in windows that screened the entry of pests like flies yet permitted the passage of air.

I've never understood why British homes don't have flyscreens as standard considering how useful they are and how many flying insects there are there. Anyway I find it deeply amusing* that England and Australia have decide to have a climate swap this year. *not actually funny amusing, more horrified amusing

I want to make fun of all these UK posts about it being a summer day in the American Midwest, but then I remembered the summer I spent living in Boston, which tries to emulate these conditions by believing air conditioning to be sinful and against Calvinist thrift, that 50 amp electrical service is perfectly reasonable for a 2 bedroom dwelling, since each of the 5 rooms need only have one duplex outlet each, and that brick is the One True Construction Material. So you have my condolences.

Going to drink it off and go to bed ringing wet after a cold shower. wet a towel with cold water, wring it out and lie under that to sleep, put another one in the freezer for later if you have a fan going drape a damp towel over that too, it'll raise the humidity which will help cool the air

air conditioning is a great trick while it lasts everyone just needs to lose enough weight that 85 with zero humidity doesn't make us sweat

Mola Yam posted:i imagine a lot of stuff just straight up breaks when things get 10c hotter than they've ever been before It's this. Because of the way materials shrink when it's cold, and expand when it's hot, you plan for the climate you're in, and everything goes to hell when you have sudden changes. Should the expansion joints on your concrete highway/ bridge/ railroad be a quarter of an inch? Half? One full inch? It depends on how hot or cold you expect it to get. Choose wrong and things will buckle. Infrastructure that was built for cold weather and mild summers won't tolerate this heat.

Rail lines where I am tend to buckle or get closed at around 45C. Sometimes a long run of 40C days will do it Real hurthling! posted:whats room temperature, like 25? Room temperature is defined as 20-25 yeah.
