So I found out the bugfuck heatwave in the Midwest is called 'corn sweat'
Evidently this swampmoding swelter is a byproduct of late-Summer corn perspiration or 'corn sweat'. All I know is the air hurts and I don't have no A/C. Time to see what slop they're slinging at the cinema!
E: update I went to play cards at an air conditioned bar with my friends and now I got two box fans pointed at me.
Corn Sweat was a bad dome
good post!
Corn Sweat sounds like the name of a soft drink in a satirical story.
Invader zim or Conker's bad fur day
Sounds like a folksy name for moonshine whisky
Imo it's not as unpleasant as tree jizz in the spring
what
don't look up what pollen is
Tree jizz. From the cum trees.
I thought corn sweat was just a jokey phrase but when I googled - I learned that steamy crops actually increase the humidity.
"Corn Sweat" and Climate Change Bring Sweltering Weather to the Midwest | Scientific American
The heat is accompanied by humidity from two sources: moist air that is streaming up from the Gulf of Mexico and a phenomenon that is sometimes called “corn sweat.” The latter happens when corn, soybeans and other crops release moisture as the temperature climbs. This process, known technically as evapotranspiration, is akin to how humans perspire in the heat. Steamy contributions from those crops mean “we can see some of our higher moisture values of the year at this time of year,” Taylor says.
I sorta felt this when I lived in Japan going from a sorta urban environment to a farm and back on my commute home and going on the roads that had the plants right next to it was obviously more humid on those really warm days.
I HATE CORN I HATE CORN!!!! GARBAGE CROP SHIT ASS ANIMAL FARMING GARBAGE!!!! FUXK YOU COEN FUCJ YOU! FUXK KRUSXJEV!!!
lol 3,000 to 4,000 gallons of transpiration per acre per day
Damn I can't imagine this without AC. You can see the humidity in the air
🙃🙃🙃
I am being assaulted by exactly this
I am forced to spend much money cooling my place very aggressively at night, literally it is cold in here, but if I don't keep the mass of everything as cold as possible, then the AC won't be able to keep up and by 8-9PM the next day it will be 85 degrees inside.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
in rural Japan during the summer the pocari crops put out almost twice as much water per acre
