Climate Change: Bandar Mahshahr, Iran

Views: 848
The heat index in Bandar Mahshahr, Iran,
. . . reached the stunning height of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

That's a combination of the heat (115 degrees Fahrenheit),
. . . with incredibly high humidity dew point,
. . . a measure of the moisture in the air reached 90 degrees,
. . . a very unusual and very high number,
. . . that indicated there was a lot of moisture in the air.

People tend to feel the heat more when there is high humidity,
. . . because the moisture in the air prevents sweat from evaporating.
. . . The evaporation of sweat from the skin helps the body to cool.
The National Weather Service says,
. . . that with a heat index above 125 degrees,
. . . "heat stroke is very likely".

165 degrees Fahrenheit, is the safe minimum cooking temperature for foods.

Why would people that live in the desert, want waterless solar energy?
