NaoPos Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Does being out in 100 degree temperatures cause the body internal temperature to rise causing an induced fever >98.6? Isn't internal body core temps above 105 extremely dangerous for human system? How do people survive in 105 temps for more than 15 minutes? It raises temperature, but It won't induce fever as if you had the flu. What it does it actually start to sweat more to cool the Body off. You're body keeps sweating until your core temp drops. However, as ambient air temp rises , sweating becomes less effective and Your body starts to overheat. Heat stresss can just you becoming tired, sweating excessively and substantial thirst, increased heart rate red sweaty skin. Heat exhaustion Is when your body starts becoming overheated at at risk situation. You'll start to have headaches, muscle cramps severely, fatigue, cool -clammy skin, increased heart rate and blood pressure, nausea and disorientation and fainting. Finally, Heat stroke. The most dangerous heat condition. As your body becomes so overwhelmingly hot, your body starts to shutdown. You lose the ability to sweat, you can/will go into cardiac arrest. You're brain can become brain damaged due to the loss of fresh blood supply. You dont want heat stroke. It can kill even the healthiest of person at any age. All this is based on variables such as age, genetics, health, body type, fitness level, etc... Different people will feel these affects at different durations of exposure. Some people can take the heat longer. Know your body's limits and know the signs and symptoms of the above mentioned effects and act accordingly. (sorry for any mis spelling, on ny iPhone.) if you're asking how I know, it's because I'm firefighter/emt. Or I just slept at a Holliday inn!! Hope this helps.

Isotherm Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Dews slightly lower today. Low to mid 70s. Up to 92 now. HI 102 here. I doubt we get close to yesterday's 125, probably 110-115. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthlight Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 We could have one or more 100 degree days in the works next week, if the models are correct with the 22 or more C 850 temps being advertised at 00z Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormlover74 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 It's definitely much more uncomfortable the further south you go. No relief even on the shore today. I am surprised EWR is running 8 degrees above CDW and TEB instead of the usual 3 to 5. EWR 97 JFK 96 LGA 91 NYC 92 Dew points are getting lower and lower. NYC and LGA in the low 60's now.

Isotherm Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Hottest temps may be a bit further south today due to the high clouds moving into NNJ. I'm now at 95.2F which is on par with yesterday at this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SACRUS Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Hottest temps may be a bit further south today due to the high clouds moving into NNJ. I'm now at 95.2F which is on par with yesterday at this time. Slowly advancing south as well, but there should be more breaks later. These were the clouds I was watching over the GL/W-PA last evening I thought would limits record/100 degree temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isotherm Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Yeah that doesn't look too promising, in and out of clouds the rest of the day probably limits us to upper 90s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SACRUS Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Without the clouds we'd be just a hair below yesterday. Areas like ACY that arent cloudy are already upt0 100. 12PM ROUNDUP TEB: 93 NYC: 92 EWR 97: LGA: 90 JFK: 97 TTN: 96 ACY: 100 PHL: 94 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-L-E-X Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 97 degrees here in Long Beach with a NNW flow. It would have easily been over 100 degrees today if it wasnt overcast. We may hit 100 anyway, even if its cloudy. JFK is 7 degrees hotter than LGA LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, and I thought these clouds were supposed to be here last night and be gone by this morning lol. Aren't these from a dying front? Thought that thing was supposed to wash out to our west.
