Wet-bulb temperature is when the air is so full of moisture your sweat cannot cool you. They say 35 degrees is the limit because beyond that, bodies just start shutting down. But I’ll tell you, on the roof of that unfinished tower in Noida last summer, with the tar melting underfoot, we crossed that limit for hours. We drank litres of nimboo paani and kept working—the limit isn’t in degrees, it’s in how many days you can skip work before your children ask for milk.
