I�m sure the deputy AG said it was on the table, but the chances of California actually dragging pg&e into court on murder charges are hilariously low.

Apparently there was a rounding error and the hourly average was still 116, but I'm sure we will get there soon!

I'm not loving around and waiting this time. PNW isn't Minnesota. Our infrastructure is going to be all hosed up at that temperature. I'm just going to assume I'm having a power outage in freezing weather and plan around that.

I would absolutely plan for that, but we did get down to 0 in 2013 without much drama. It seems here the ice storms are more of an issue than our infrastructure being unable to function in the cold.

im excited for it to be really really loving cold, not really, I hope it at least snows. But with temps that low we likely won't get much precipitation huh?

The super cold poo poo comes right after the warmer days that will bring some snow. Anyones guess as to how much. Hopefully it�s 2 feet and society breaks down.

I don't know, if push came to shove I'm sure I could figure it out, but as it stands I just don't drive on the 2 days where that's an issue.

It snowed a little in Portland. We did not prepare with enough tarps, some trees fell over, and the freeway from the west side suburbs into the city was closed for most of the day.

looking forward to heat enough to ground flights in Phoenix because no one has done the math on various planes flying through air hotter than ~123.8F

it would be hilarious if Boeing just fucks up again and "whoops yeah uh sorry airlines, you guys all have to keep any MAX flights grounded, we only calculated up to 121.9F."

This one isn't too difficult. Just demolish some neighborhoods and build longer runways.

thanks! I understand what a wet bulb is, but when I�ve talked to people about it the first question is usually something like �so what�s the dangerous temperature� or �how do I know when we are approaching those conditions.� So the red and black bands on the chart are conditions wherein you would be unable to cool down without A/C or another cooling source, even in the shade? The conditions where a person could not survive outdoors, even at rest? I live in Louisiana and have a lot of family who work outside- could they look up the temp and humidity in their location, and use this chart to determine if conditions are dangerous?

There are some caveats to it. It assumes clear skies and is for hiking. I don't think the black is "you're going to die for being outside" but definitely a "don't do physical activity outside" area.

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.

England, known for it's low humidity and lack of moisture.

But seriously, if you don't experience anything like this heat normally and have no real mitigations for it you're gonna have a hard time.

It�s not unheard of for moist places to be drier than normal when it gets really hot, so I think it�s a fair question.

Today's the day things may start to get wild in the Pacific Northwest, so stay tuned. We've had a pretty cold and wet year so far, so I hope we don't have the awful forest fires like we did the past two years.

It's just like a dry year except there is more grass and stuff in the forests to dry out and eventually catch on fire.

i love the chemical safety board youtube videos the best. they do a super in depth analysis of the processes and equipment used to do various dangerous industrial scale chemical reactions and why they lead to some massive disaster that caused numerous injuries and fatalities and tens of millions of dollars of damage, and then always finish being like "these industries should be more careful in the future" and they just continue doing the same dumb poo poo because no one is forcing them to fix anything

the best part is that the incidents are never caused by novel hazards or anything. It's always people disregarding poo poo like making hot work plans in tanks that may or may not be full of highly flammable chemical vapors and then being utterly shocked when a completely obvious source of chemicals fills the tank with nasty poo poo and it explodes.

It's a weak cat 1. Lawn furniture will get toppled, branches will get broken off tress. Miami Beach will flood slightly more than it did the day before, and it will be forgotten in 2 days.

The building threatened will be decaying sheds, 60 year old mobile homes, and sand castles.

Looking at the track I think the biggest impact on this one might be inland flooding.
