minus-squaresushibowl@feddit.nllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·6 months ago Is it safer to stay inside without AC or go outside in shade? Isn’t the ambient air temperature still too dangerous in the shade? Humidity is a big factor, if humidity is low then evaporative cooling (e.g. sweating) is quite effective. Even more so in a breeze.
