Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: I need to tell you two cents.
- 0:03Speaker 2: Coffee and Christine's two pretty cool things.
- 0:07Speaker 3: All right, So we're gonna have a heat waver or
- 0:08Speaker 3: heat dome, and Nina will explain that. But we have
- 0:12Speaker 3: a landscape who lists next door to us, and when
- 0:15Speaker 3: it gets really hot, he drinks hot coffee. We go,
- 0:17Speaker 3: why he goes? That cools you off? So I looked
- 0:19Speaker 3: it up. Drinking hot liquid contemporarily raise your core temperature,
- 0:24Speaker 3: which triggers your body's natural cooling mechanism. Now it has
- 0:27Speaker 3: to be dry, it's humid, you're just gonna feel like
- 0:30Speaker 3: a mess. So best is cold liquids because you will
- 0:33Speaker 3: actually drink more if it's colder.
- 0:35Speaker 1: But if it's if it's dry, not humid, we're always
- 0:38Speaker 1: humid here.
- 0:39Speaker 3: Yes, so drink the cold liquids. It's all about dehydration
- 0:43Speaker 3: when it gets too hot. Okay, you want to keep
- 0:44Speaker 3: drinking except alcohol and caffeine.
- 0:47Speaker 2: There is a thing, by the way, there is a

- 0:56Speaker 2: long period of hot weather. That's kind of it, right,
- 0:59Speaker 2: depends on your climate, but it's subjective to where you are.
- 1:01Speaker 2: A heat dome is a high pressure system that acts
- 1:04Speaker 2: like a lid or a dome. It forces warm air downward,
- 1:07Speaker 2: the skies will clear, and it allows the sun to
- 1:10Speaker 2: bake the ground, preventing cooler weather systems from moving in.
- 1:14Speaker 2: So it is an actual thing, which sounds awful, because
- 1:16Speaker 2: we're going to have one this week.
- 1:17Speaker 3: You should go into meteorology.
- 1:19Speaker 1: I should not. I can't do the science, but I
- 1:21Speaker 1: can read what's in front.
- 1:21Speaker 3: Of the handwaving. You could point to the numbers on
- 1:23Speaker 3: the screen and yeah, here comes the incoming dome.
- 1:26Speaker 1: There was a lot of handwaving when I read that thing.
- 1:28Speaker 1: Just now, Yeah,
