    There is a scene in the book Ministry of the Future where there is a wet bulb event in India and tons of people flocked to the water to cool down. The water was also like 100°F so the waterways ended up being filled with dead bodies that does from being too hot.

    Looks like we may not be very far from that…

        Thank you for sharing that. Holy shit, that was well written and uncomfortable in a way that felt right. I won’t lie, reading about the dawn breaking dried my own eyes out a bit.

        Looks like I have a book to read!
