More than 4 million without power, 100 degrees and rising I lived in West Africa for a couple years. 110-120 degree temps are the norm. To deal with heat like this, wet a hand towel, wring it out, roll it up the long way and hang it around you neck. This tricks out the thermoreceptors (part of the somatosensory system) in the neck and head and will make things much more comfortable. Keep a bottle of water with you as doing this screws with the normal cooling functions of the body. But it works. |
