It's not just 95, also 120 and all the other temperatures mentioned. Internet is for all, not just for a niche population using their own units. Making it more accessible brings down walls.
A large part of the southern US is now crossing the threshold above 95°F wet bulb temperature. How does this compare to predictions? Where will we see the threshold crossed next? When might large population centers like NYC, LA, or global cities see the threshold crossed?

Interesting. I always wondered how people don't get air fried when they ride motorcycles in 100 degree weather. I guess it all has to do with humidity.
Central Texas only got rain 2 times this summer. It’s humid af here and has been forever., The elites are pushing their climate change bs agenda. Weather has only been measured for 100 years. I’d rather suffer in Texas heat than live anywhere else!
Damn I never thought this would happen on the Eastern shore Maryland July 2023 no wonder so many people have been having issues with heart rate and heat exhaustion
Only less than 5% of the World understands that gibberish units. Please include Celsius. It's almost like people think the US is not already on the SI (hint: veritasium - is america actually metric?)
@@Psychol-Snooper RUclips, as well as the entire internet are international at this point, yes many things may have started off in the US, but nowadays audiences and content creators are from all over the world. Don't act like the US id the center of the world, after all it's just a part of it.
It's getting hard to tell if it's climate change that people are feeling OR it's simply their own body temperatures naturally increasing from having to work harder, longer hours to keep up with the inflation (that we're not supposed to talk about) that is outpacing wage increases.
On May 18 2024 my son survived a fever of 118f (48C) he spent 4 months in a Toronto Hospital and is expected make a full recover and will attend law school in 2025,
Even at those levels the wet bulb is below the 95 threshold but still very bad. 100F at 83% humidity causes a 95+ wet bulb. That doesn't lead to instantaneous death either obviously. It'll still take a few hours exposed to those temperatures before most people succumb to heat related death.
Mhm lets say i have experience with that temp +humidity /higher temps with lower humidity over many years and one day is just burned in my mind we had to 38°C with 79% relativ humidity and i had too wore my full work outfit (see profile pic) and yeah im kinda lucky i didn't have a heat stroke / passed out / dieded (big pools of molten metal are dangerous if you faint ) well end of the day i poured my boots out about 100 ml sweat what wasnst avsobed by the shoes and well my body was red from the extended blood vessels under the skin (too radiate heat away last resort for our body ) and the thermometer i got for our job side doctor read 41,3 °C soo yeha close enough (for me at least )
Thumbs down for NOT converting Fahrenheit to Celsius!!! Get off your high horse, the U.S. is only ONE country, and almost ALL of the others are using Celsius.
It is obviously a video made by Americans on an American platform. Just like Americans have to convert measurements when given in metric, others can easily convert to metric as well. Typically though all things medical or science related usually uses the metric system, even in America.
Bro, did you even watch the video? They explain the importance of humidity in relation to heat and why it's the combination of the two, web bulb, that matters in determining the fatality/health effect of temperature
adding to the other 2 comments, Just because it's that temperature and humidity outside doesn't mean people are all living in that. In the west (and increasingly all over) most people hop from air conditioned car to air conditioned building and on;y expose them selves to the extremes for short duration's. There are also the mentioned water parks that can keep you cool enough to survive but heat waves regularly kill people.
When the humidity rate is so high, it rains. It’s not instant death, you can easily solve the problem by just standing in the shade, drinking a little water. Not shocking these extremes are in places where the desert is the most common feature, that also sit in the middle of a valley, just like LA, it amplifies the heat island. In third world countries, like those shown, people dump garbage and chemicals everywhere, which isn’t helping.
😂 Spending half my working career behind an asphalt paver I usher you nothing gets hotter than that by 3:00 in the afternoon. You can just about mold your hard hat with your hands. If it didn't kill us. You'll be all right. They need to stop screwing with the weather. See how that works for a while.
@@leafbranch1872 Really! I have been hearing about cloud seeding since early 70s. I live my life outside. I see cross hatched contrails in the sky at least two or three times a year. We've detonated tons of nuclear bombs.. I guess we accept some things as a society. You don't think making it rain when and where it's not supposed to doesn't screw with weather cycles. Just because we can does it mean we should? And we proven ourselves time and time again to be stupid about things. Like when we've ripped up the planes and 7 ft of the most fertile topsoil on Earth blew off the face of it. That was a good one.

Please always use celsius as default, not american-only farenheit
95 degrees Fahrenheit = 35 degrees Celsius
-40 degrees Fahrenheit = -40 degrees Celsius
A couple of days ago it reached 51 in kuwait

Faster than expected.
Sweating is ineffective at 75 % humidity and above
hmmm... challenge accepted 😊
Please include small °c next time. Not everyone uses Fahrenheit! Otherwise excellent.
Good idea!!!
Thanks for the feedback! We just added conversions in the captions.
No-one uses Fahrenheit except for the US, Liberia and Myanmar. Talk about living in the dark ages :)
This is why I love Grist!!!! Just waiting for some non american content ;)
@@adrianbjones yeah the US is definitely in the dark ages, they only invented flight, the internet, and electricity…

yes humidity is way more important then temperature.
Even in Canada around Vancouver this happend recently
Man lemme tell ya this channel doesn't get enough clout
2023 says hold my beer... 2 months of 100+ degree weather in Southern USA. Now we may start to care...

Good video. Pity about the comments section.
Never have to consider it here in England. It rains and gales 300 days of year
Not yet. Just give it a few more years.
That 95F is now being revised downwards significantly, as research continues into the subject.
Excellent explanation. We have to know this.
Excellent explainer and visual aids
Y'all really did a video about temperature and didnt even mention celsius
faranheit? what is that ? are you guys from the 1500's?
The entirety of the United States uses Fahrenheit. This video was made by an American. Not hard to put two and two together.
Ever been to DFW in August? 112 degree index all month long😂
What is "Fahrenheit"?
When a ladder is really really tall.
Human temperature. Celsius is science temperature
Great and very important piece!
Thank you for making it easy to understand ❤
Can y'all explain wim hoff?

@@Psychol-Snooper not really, when I've encountered dozens of people with this actual viewpoint one gets used to giving them a reality check xd
Great one more reason why I hate summer thank you science.
awesome video thanks for sharing

Cool story bro.😊
Too late.
I live in deep south Alabama where temperatures routinely hit mid 90's and low 100's with 50-80% humidity. Nothing new learned in this video I guess.
Even at those levels the wet bulb is below the 95 threshold but still very bad.
100F at 83% humidity causes a 95+ wet bulb.
That doesn't lead to instantaneous death either obviously.
It'll still take a few hours exposed to those temperatures before most people succumb to heat related death.
Typical smugness of a dumb southerner
Would this heat also affect the people in thise countries which use celcius?
sweat does NOT cool me down🤣🤣🤣🤣!! i need a fan or just dirnk cold water to cool down and i actually sleep with the fan on!!
4:00 declining, since 2010, whew!
I was interested in the topic and then farenheit told me that this video didn't want me so I left.
Please use Celsius
No
USA 🇺🇸 USA 🇺🇸 USA 🇺🇸 🤪
It's only numbers. What's so important about Celsius?
Mhm lets say i have experience with that temp +humidity /higher temps with lower humidity over many years and one day is just burned in my mind we had to 38°C with 79% relativ humidity and i had too wore my full work outfit (see profile pic) and yeah im kinda lucky i didn't have a heat stroke / passed out / dieded (big pools of molten metal are dangerous if you faint ) well end of the day i poured my boots out about 100 ml sweat what wasnst avsobed by the shoes and well my body was red from the extended blood vessels under the skin (too radiate heat away last resort for our body ) and the thermometer i got for our job side doctor read 41,3 °C soo yeha close enough (for me at least )
The Earth is not in a Climate crisis because of any human doing. It’s because our climate is cyclical.
ELI5.

Cry more. It may cool you off.
The celsius conversions are in the captions if you turn them on. Also, why get upset that an American company is using American measuring systems?
It’s called Arabian Gulf.
Tehran wants a word?
I have a plan
High heat and humidity in KSA and Bahrain is nothing new. This isn't remarkable news.
You didn't watch the video
Came here only to complain about not caring for 95% of the world metric system 🙄

i dont get it because a large majority of countries reach higher temperatures than 95. and people dont die.
but the humidity is lower, so it's not that much of a problem
that's the whole point of the video

This is BS. I've lived in hot humid climates my entire life and never had an issue. Just drink lots of water, no issues.
Not _this_ hot and humid.
There isn't an issue if the person has the ability and means to cool down.

It was 98f today i worked in the direct sun no problem if you die from being outside i guess its natural selection
what was the humidity? also good luck to you and the survivors in the new hot world.
