I was all set to whine about how hot it is in the greater DC area (high today - likely around 93 farenheight). Then I saw this story out of India:
Bhubaneswar, which had witnessed the second hottest day in the current century, recorded a maximum day temperature of 44.6 ° C today while the mercury level at Cuttack was 43.6 °C. Other than the unbearable heat, the high humidity has made life miserable for the residents of the twin cities. One person died of sunstroke in the capital today while 15 other sunstroke patients were admitted into a hospital here during the day. In western Orissa, the mercury hovered above 46°C. Sundargarh recorded a maximum day temperature of 47°C followed by Jharsuguda with 46.2°C.
