There are a few episodes that really do a good job of conveying what wet bulb temperatures are like to live in. It's almost like a surreal scifi movie with people working at night, needing oxygen to breath outdoors, vehicle modifications, etc...

It's only TV, and I've heard it all before, but it was a bit disturbing to see a realistic representation of the mundane pieces of life that will have to change now.
