91°F (32.7°C) in the factory I work at.

The law states “all factories must maintain a reasonable temperature and humidity.”

Nowhere is reasonable ever defined. I am mildly infuriated. And very hot lol

Edit: 94° (34.4C) now and this post has made it close to the top of “Hot”… The gods are having a laugh lol

    I thought that any wet bulb temperature above your own body’s is cause for concern as sweating basically becomes useless, is that not accurate?

      You are 100% correct about concern for wet bulb temperature above body temperature, although we start getting concerned at a couple of degrees below body temperature too. The environment has to be a bit cooler so waste heat can be dumped fast enough, otherwise body temperature will begin to increase. Two degrees cooler is barely enough and it’s a miserable experience if you’re doing anything.
