I'm not sure if I should be alarmed that this is happening frequently enough to recycle older articles or comforted that we've already dealt with this trouble once before.
they updated it on july 4th 2023. i think when they originally wrote the article, they were explaining what wet bulb temperature meant. Now they're pointing out the frequency of reaching that threshold...which really sucks...so alarmed for sure.
