It's not the 15512°C heat, it's the 18989268000000000° wind chill that gets you.

that's because of the 6.02*10^23 humidity

Or when the heat gets to be too much ... just change the name of the city

Last time it got hot .... it used to be called Berlin, Ontario

[–] MakingWork@lemmy.ca 18 points 1 year ago

The snow and wind will counter the heat. All good.

Sure it’s a balmy 15,512°C, but it’s really the solar wind burns that get ya.

^Feels like : is this the big bang?°^

[–] adespoton@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The surface of the sun is around 10,000°C; that solar wind would be positively chilly.

[–] Kichae@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

It's more like 6000°C. But the corona's much hotter, and the solar winds originate from there. The temperature of the solar wind is estimated to be 100,000° - 800,000°, depending on the type (slow vs fast).

For the Americans, that's about 89ºF

it's about the amount of their national debt

Could be anything from malfunctioning sensors or possibly typos, pretty common problem with weather forecasts. Example.

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 year ago

That wind chill really kicks it up a notch.

[–] masterofn001@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago

That's the low... Imagine what the high is.
