    It’s forecast to be 39c with nearly 80% humidity on wednesday in my area, and 38c on thursday with probably worse humidity. So my flat, baking in the sun all day with no insulation or ability to generate through breeze, will be close to 50c with likely higher than 80% humidity, for two days.

    I might actually die to this.

      That’s way too hot. You really need to go somewhere else. I’d sleep in a church building or underground station in that situation, if I had no other safe place. Keep in mind that heat also infers significantly with the ability to react appropriately to such a situation, so don’t wait too long.

        Lmao, there is nowhere else to go. I’ve made my peace anyway, at best I die and at worst it’s basically a free lobotomy.

          You can go outside and try to find some shade. It’s better than getting a heatstroke. I lived at the top floor of a soviet flat for a few years and all of my neighbors without aircon did that in the summer.

      Keep the windows open at night if you can, and the shades down during the day. And if you have a fan or can procure one that will help circulate the air in from the outside. Drink lots of water and good luck!
