Chit-Chat: a good ol' fashioned DCC!

You might not believe, but the heatwave here are life-threatening even for locals like us.
For once thinking of surviving temperature is possible. But when heatwave comes into picture then scene is different.


We need to put our lips inside the mouth if we are driving two wheelers. Because dry heatwave can make our lips bleed. Eyes also burn if we keep our eyes wide open, so generally we need to keep our eyes partially closed, or wear goggles.




Skin can also get affected if someone don't have experience of living in these climates.



Something like hairdryer being used over entire body but with more heat and we being placed in furnace.....

Wow, that's insane!

Yep! There's been reports of deaths in Asia as a result of the extreme heat they're getting. Certain medications can make you even more susceptible. I'm on an SSRI so I'm weaker to the heat and can get heat exhaustion/stroke quicker.

There's been reports of deaths in Asia as a result of the extreme heat they're getting.

In yesterday's newspaper, the news came that 17 people died due to heat stroke in 24hrs, and out of which 8 were found dead in the public place.....



It's still early morning, but the weather had already crossed 36°C. And to make matter worse, current humidity is also 50% !! It also doesn't helps that sunrise occurs around 5:30 AM, but sunset happens at 7 PM, and due to which, there is slight light in sky till 7:30PM. Hence the nights are also hot considerably, maybe around 33°C.


(Although increase in humidity should be seen as a sign that monsoon winds are going to start, which should be bringing rainy season here, most probably in the middle of June or around that)
