    What I get from this is that the most populous country in the world has essentially unliveable temperatures. And this is only the early parts of global warming. Scary times ahead.

      Global warming affects every region of the planet and in essence means irregular weather. AFAIK extreme winds in Canada and extreme cold in USA were attributed to global warming.

      Also FYI, the Indian planes are one of the most fertile planes on the planet, that’s why its able to support so many people for 1000s of years.

      Global warming might affect Indian subcontinent more than other regions (im not a scientist) but I’ve only read otherwise.

        I live in a region of the US that now gets semi-regular polar winds most years giving us a week of -40 degree weather. It’s an exillerating change of pace to brave such extreme cold, but also extremely concerning to consider what else climate change has in store in the coming decades and centuries

      Cool-looking app. Nice tip!

      I looked in this area today and found a spot where one side had 44°C and the valley on the other side had -1°C. 🔥⚖️🧊 Wild.

      What a stark difference. Looks like the only place in the world it’s got a cold pocket like that amidst hot.

      I checked on my phone, green is 10, yellow is 20, orange is 30, burnt orange is 40. I know that’s not a great measure but currently walking so if someone could screenshot the legend that would be coolio.

    It is almost like one side is tropical low land and the other is high mountain temperate.

    Yes I am being snarky sorry can’t help it sometimes.

    That explains a lot. I was so confused when on the news they showed India with heatwaves and also having heavy rains at the same time.

    I feel so much sorry for people who have to work outside in 45° C.

    This is fine says the naysayers of global warming. Expect the inevitable, more death and war from forced migration.
