Five consecutive rainfall season failures in the Horn of Africa caused the region’s worst drought in 40 years (with Ethiopia, Kenya and Somalia particularly hard hit), contributing to reduced agricultural productivity, food insecurity and high food prices (WMO, 2023)

Drought data shows “an unprecedented emergency on a planetary scale”

Air temperature survival limits are greatly reduced in humid heat, and more so for older adults. The corresponding wet-bulb temperatures in dry weather are dramatically lower than the previously assumed limit of 95F or 35C. A wet bulb temperature of only 78F on a dry Phoenix summer day would be considered unsurvivable, yet it would take air temperatures of 128F under 10% relative humidity to reach that limit.
