Its because of this wretched heat we're having, I think its about 98 degrees!
I have been outside, but it was earlier in the morning betweetn 8-11:30am and it was up to 85, still very hot!
But I just heard in the news that 27 peoples have died because of this heat!
Im thinking the poor pplz that live in the street and I see alot of them in Washington DC.
Or the pplz that have no A/C....
Rip to the Peoples that have died today :/

How sad!!! I hate this weather we are all having!! It is very scary!! That is why my husband made me quit my job until we get another car because I was taking 3 buses to get home and it was taking 3 hours to get home and when I did I had to walk a ways to the house and the heat is awful in Texas!!! It has been 100 or above for the last 25 days!!!!! I hate Summers in Texas!!!!! But there is nothing I can do I live here so all I can do is try and stay inside unless I go somewhere I make sure I go early in the morning!!

that is a sad thing. catastrophes and the wrath of nature can kill. especially concurrently where extreme weather conditions are becoming more and more dangerous.
with such extreme heat, it is better to stay indoors, to hydrate and keep one's self cool.

That is really sad,indeed.Tragedies like this happen in many parts of the world where there are really hot summers and there's little we can do to prevent them,especially when there are street people in big cities who have very few means of protecting themselves against the merciless heat waves,or people who are forced to get out in the sun because they have to earn their living regardless of weather conditions and find their end because of the heat.Rip to all of them!

That sounds really bad. They must have suffered a lot perhaps from heat stroke or heat exhaustion. Poor people. Our earth, I am afraid, is really getting sicker and sicker everyday. It is true that it is getting really hot. I can remember that many years ago it was easy living a life even without a fan. But now I could hardly live without a fan or a/c.

Hello Lxandra,
Its really a sad news. People should stay home in this heat but what to do with people having site jobs they need to go out to perform their duty.
What to do with people who don't have their own houses & live in open where they will go and i think most effected people are they only as they have no place to go. Government should think about them.
People who don't have AC doesn't matter as when you are at home it is not at all necessary to have it.
