Major updates.

It’s official, red alerts have gone out across the entire country of Brazil as the heat index hits 137F. The high temperature combined with humidity has made it impossible for most people to carry out their normal lives. There’s already reports of power outages. People can’t work. They can’t run errands. They can barely sleep. It’s not even summer there yet.

    A lot of Brazil is in the tropics, so no, not winter kinda latitudes.

    But Brazil also extends to something like 33° South, where winter starts in June.
