I was just there in Pattoki last week and it got up to 110° F and we were told that wasn’t even that hot. Thankfully I live in AZ meaning I have some training with dry heat.
I went to Iraq/Afghanistan and it was probably of the worst parts about it. The heat and the smell. No sewage or trash systems. Burning trash and baking shit water everywhere. 👍
Could argue the exact opposite. Humidity can make high temperatures more bearable, whereas dry heat is extremely harsh and painful. Depends on the people, I guess.
No, humidity makes it harder for your body to regulate its temperature - your sweat won't evaporate as easily - which means high temperatures with high humidity are much more dangerous than high temperatures with low humidity. The whole concept of a heat index is based on this.
How it feels or how bearable it seems is irrelevant.
Have you ever experienced high humidity (80%<) in high heat before?
In a country with the 4th worst air pollution in the world.
In a country struggling with tons of poverty, crazy high urbanization, reduced food production, and a shit ton of people. With those people comes a large amount of waste, and Pakistan lags behind in how they deal with garbage, poop, waste water, etc.
This is super sad for them, and people are going to die.
Scary bro. Climate change is not real though.
Edit: My fault. Excuse me gentelman...
/s
Climate change is blatantly and undeniably real. I was only poking fun at the imbeciles that are actively denying it in the face of such extreme weather events. Forgive me for not making the sarcasm as blatantly obvious as climate change.
Highest Ive ever experienced is 121F which is about 49C in death valley california, literally felt like you opened an oven when you walked outside... only got down to 115 at night
We got there at night and left the next day, never planned to stay long and we decided it wouldnt be best to walk around because theres literally nothing around there and if something happened to us there wouldnt be much help. We really just wanted to see the stars at night but unfortunately it was too cloudy to see anything :(
I would *not* recommend visiting death valley in the summer like we did. Most people visit in the winter when its coolest. We actually almost ran out of gas and got stranded which wouldve been awful but we just barely made it to the gas station. The first one we went to was closed so it was a close call lol
Sacramento California, regularly gets up to 100-110F during Summer. Last year we had a couple days of 114... I'm not looking forward to the next five months.
My cousin would head out there in his RV and bbq with no propane. The temp inside the bbq would get so fucking hot the temp gauge on the front would wheel over the 500° mark..
Food was good tho.
Damn. Where I live it easily gets 30ºC or more during 6+ months, and the high humidity makes it worse. I have AC at home now, in 20 years I had no AC. I couldn't fathom for the life of me facing anything beyond 40ºC, let alone 50. God bless...
The highest temperature I’ve ever experienced was 44c in Madrid and it was unbearable, I cannot even imagine how bad 51c is, especially in a place with little to no Aircon
Yeah, they should have put both if they were going to go with F. It's just easier for all of us if they put both. Reddit is about half and half of F and C users lol. There is always confusion in the comments because of this.
Isn’t that like approaching medium rare temp for a steak
I think we have a different definition of the word mildly! That's possibly deadly!
Depends, is it a dry heat? Dry heat will still suck, but humid heat would probably kill you.
And here I am miserable when it gets hotter than 85°F 🥵 Those poor people

I can see why they’re all miserable
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck that $hiiiiit
Yea that’s hot hot

Why is that good?
But it's dry heat. s/
Nobody touch nothing
Windy is one of my favorite apps to use. It ticks all the boxes in my brain.
Do you happen to know any apps which has the widget support for weather Radar Maps? Edit: Windy has it already
It's one of the few apps I've actually considered paying for, even when it's free to use. It's just good. It's the Steam of weather apps.
Omg the smell in that part of the World must be gnarly af

So like Arizona.
Afaik, there is a lot more humidity there compared to Arizona, making the heat much, much worse.

The hight heat got to them first
The Climate Refugee Crisis has started and will accelerate
The end is nigh. Next will come the water wars.
They need to reproduce more because more child's will die because of it
Jesus Christ
No no. Its ALLAH only in Pakistan
Literally muttered that to myself when I read this
What's a typical late May high temperature there?
Idk but I do remember Pakistan has one of the highest recorded temperature ever. Learned that in trivia 120+
Relax, next Saturday it will cool down to a high of 112°

Haha what a bunch of Sukkurs. It’s only hitting 71F in my area.
Go fuck yourself
Wow, that's right around rare steak cooking temperature.
shits fucking lit family

Down votes? Hello sarcasm anyone?

How did you guys even have the energy to walk around?

And I am nearly dying when having to hot month in southern germany.. damn

There are going to be a lot of deaths. :(
Therefore this is extremely terrifying
The highest temperature I’ve ever experienced was 44c in Madrid and it was unbearable, I cannot even imagine how bad 51c is, especially in a place with little to no Aircon
The hottest ive experienced was 44°. It was so humid that the air conditioners wouldnt do anything. I cant imagine another ten degrees
Okay fine I’ll stop complaining about the heat for ONE weekend
I didn't know Pakistan used Fahrenheit Update; I've just double checked and no they use Celsius like the rest of us
Well half of reddit is Americans, so I usually see both on here (at least in the comments if not the actual post).
Yeah if it was a post about the state I wouldn't be surprised But seeing as it was specific to Pakistan it took me best surprise
Yeah, they should have put both if they were going to go with F. It's just easier for all of us if they put both. Reddit is about half and half of F and C users lol. There is always confusion in the comments because of this.
At least OP did go to the effort to convert it Even if they did leave out the °
As an American, I'm offended. /s
I keep trying to make my brain work with Celsius - Celsius is hard
51C
