@0101010001110100 Thanks for the warning! FYI, wet bulb *globe* temperatures (which this map reports) aren't the same thing as wet bulb temperatures.

When you hear about certain wet bulb temperatures being unsurvivable, the assumption is one has already found shade and that is the wet bulb temperature out of direct sunlight. Or put another way, those fatality limits are if the wet bulb temperature in shade is over a threshold, then it's fatal.

Wet-bulb *globe* temperatures are slightly different: they're the weather forecast in direct sunlight. Moving to shade helps get you into a lower wet-bulb temperature.

So this is Bad, but it's not *quite* as catastrophic as it sounds like.

Deepwinter strawberry
Endless summer, ever spring
A vast preserve
Aisle after aisle in reach
Every commoner made a king

Earthbreaker
Noble and prized
Feed me beyond my means
Hello, worldmaker
Never deny
Build all my wildest dreams
But there's a storm outside your door
I'm a child no more..."

First credible flood warnings in my area.

Some context: The region in which I live, after catastrophic flooding in the middle of the 20th century, domesticated and tamed all of the rivers. We have a system of dams and other flood control that mostly keeps our water levels very stable. New Englanders do not understand how artificial the stability of our water levels is, and the kinds of floods we used to have here before all the dams were built to make sure that never happens again.

But now we're getting rainfall like never before, and it's not like our dams are any better maintained than our bridges are - and our bridges are a known scandal.
