The imagery included a screenshot of conditions at a major city along the Persian Gulf at 4pm on July 14th, 2024. The city is in the United Arab Emirates which is located at 24.3° N latitude. Using the National Weather Service Wet Bulb Global Temperature calculator it becomes apparent that the WBGT was 93°F at that time. This translates to 34°C. This is the very hottest of human survival. At the time of the recording of this episode it was unknown that the heat was this extreme. Had it been known the episode would have been designated to discuss this point alone. It is commonly believed that when a wet bulb temperature reaches 95°F/35°C humans will die within 6 hours. The same is true regarding WBGT. However, it should be pointed out that when the WBGT reaches 95°F during the daytime, there would presumably be some relief by going to a shaded area making the heat less deadly. The same could not be said regarding WBT alone.

This episode was recorded in the hottest part of the month within the hottest month of the year. The weather map reflects this as the synoptic weather setup is bringing very significant heatwaves to at least 3 parts of our country. The most populated state included in this heatwave is New York City. The city with the most unique spin on this heatwave is Denver Colorado. The place with the most dangerous heat in the U.S. is the Midwest cornbelt and Omaha Nebraska in particular. The most headline friendly news event is the Extreme Heat Warning issue for areas near the Arctic Ocean. This warning was issued by Environmental Canada and is in effect for the northern Arctic Coast,
This episode also discusses concepts such as compressional warming its connection to a cold front. We speak about the Bermuda High and it's impact on Baltimore in particular. We make mention of the warm deep waters in the Gulf and the impact this could have on hurricanes. We discuss states such as Tennessee, North Carolina and Colorado. Those 3 states are experiencing record heat.
Deadly heat continues along the coastal cities of United Arab Emirates. This is by far the hottest place in the world right now as heat indecies go into the 130's (132°F/55°C) with Wet Bulb Temperatures between 86° - 90°F/ 32°C and Wet Bulb Global Temperature of 90°F+ (93°F/34°C).
Enjoy!
