Anthropogenic global warming will claim the very old and very young first; this year alone hundreds of children will die in their families' cars. During the next grand heat wave, hundreds of elderly will perish in their apartments, often dying alone. Eventually, if the temperature goes up another 1 to 2 degrees C, thousands will begin to die every year. Anything beyond that will start to cause millions of deaths worldwide.

Please don't assume that I don't understand the issue with the heat or that I'm not sympathetic to those that die in it. I simply said I prefer the extreme heat and would like to live where it is hot.

Here's a more astute analysis of the topic: http://www.pnas.org/content/107/21/9552.full If planet wide temperatures hit 40 degrees C, it's all over with: https://www.scientificamerican.com/artic...reenhouse/ The sad thing is that when human civilization recognizes the gravity of anthropogenic global warming, it may be, at that point, too late to do anything about it. The humans remaining would simply be forced to watch their planet die around them. How sad! RE: Record Temperatures in Australia

That chart from noa is fun.
80f, 100% humidity, aka a brisk 3am..christmas morning in s. florida...risk rating of 87.....lol.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
But if you're young and have zits and scabs and rashes everywhere, or dress funny, it's a diffeent story?
