#Texasheatwave, Extreme heat bulb events happening this July in Texas with 40C (104F) temperatures, high humidity (heat index), & air stability (Heat Bomb); means that your body’s ability for maintaining thermoregulation (ability to sweat to cool core body temperature to 31C(88F)) begins to shut down at 35C(95F) & prolonged exposure 4-6 hrs in it without fluids (water hydration/ electrolytes) can lead to heat stroke, organ failure, & death. So be proactive : stay hydrated & seek cooling places.

I’m not in Texas, but this just shows how little fucks Gov. Abbot and co have for the working class. Remember this when voting, people! #texas #heatwave #texasheatwave https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2023/06/during-an-extreme-texas-heat-wave-gov-abbott-ended-local-rules-requiring-water-breaks-for-workers/

Repairing my #cooling #fan here in #houston before the next #heatwave arrives. I am happy to say it is working perfectly again! #tx #texas #texasheatwave

When 227 people died in India last year due to a climate-change-induced high humidity heatwave, I wondered when that phenomenon would make it to the U.S. It only took a year. #Texas #texasheatwave https://www.axios.com/2023/06/21/texas-heat-wave-continues-records

This is just incredible from #houston . I even drove around for quite some time and it still hovered between 107F-111F(41C-43C)! The humidity is just brutally high as well. Definitely stay safe out there in #texas #texasheatwave #ERCOT

@aspensmonster@octodon.social it does NOT feel good outdoors right now #texasheatwave
