A bit of a personal post on my end. This was a few years in the making but had to postponed several times due to the passing of my mom during Covid and obviously the continuation of Covid until we are safe to travel. And also why I made this trip back to the home country for the first time in 20 years.
This was taken at Central Highlands of Vietnam in Da Lat early morning. The fog and mists was just like home.
Hyperbole is not the answer here.
No one said heatwaves don't kill. They do, especially extreme ones like 2021.
That doesn't change the fact that the study cited was sus, and logically attributing 3 weeks of excess deaths arbitrarily doesn't add up.
Well that was many hours ago of course! I wasn't really paying attention to the radar... but the rain did stop and the sun peaked out a few times at my mom's house but it was raining lightly again by time we left. I was probably being a little too optimistic in the moment assuming the main front had passed though.
Wow no sun peaking out down on the water front. We did have a couple of brief periods where there was no precip, but it was at least drizzling pretty much all day. We did have a couple of periods of moderate rain, I caught a picture of this gal waiting out one of the heavier bands of rain. She definitely had the right idea.
No one said heat doesn't contribute to deaths. Sometimes directly. It's just that the media will stretch the reality as far as they can for maximum shock value.
