    42.6 °C actually (Rio de Janeiro). That “nearly 60 °C” is the heat index. It is very worrying though…

      Yes, this report uses the heat index, which accounts for heat + humidity. Basically, a “feels like” temperature.

      Not to undermine the extremely concerning temperature trends, but that point should be clarified.

      It’s a bigger number in Fahrenheit, that’s why we like it. HUGE

      Three men walk into a bar. The American says, “actually that’s only 1 3/23 men in FreedomTM units”.
