Update on keeping cool. If you have water shortages, do the evaporation trick on your body. Wet a cloth, wring it out and put it around you. I have a sarong that I used wrap around me in the desert. Everyday was about 45 deg C. As @skribe pointed out, this does not work as well in humid places.
Chu 朱This is the stuff of my recurring nightmares. Sometime in my lifetime, somewhere well populated will reach wet bulb 35c. This means that evaporation temp you are getting to is so high it doesn't cool us down. A healthy adult male is projected to survive 6 hours in that.
My recurring dream is that I'm somewhere in the mid east and walk out of a hotel room to see street after street of bodies of people who didn't survive the night.
