        My pleasure. If anything, it's rose-colored.

        The data presented here reflects temperatures alone and does not account for humidity, which can make even less-extreme temperatures dangerous.

        At 100% humidity, once the temperature reaches 95°F (35°C) even the strongest of us dies within six hours. If humanity had to go nocturnal, at least it won't be for too long.
