I lived in Seattle for three years, never had AC. It’s weird to see it on the same list as Houston. Are you sure you’re not confusing it with somewhere else? Or has the climate in Seattle really changed that dramatically since I lived there 7 years ago?
- asciimov 3y agoThe 2021 heat wave killed 120 people in Seattle.
- anonym29 3y agoBesides 159 people dying from heat exhaustion in under a month just 2 years ago? Nah, not much. Still >50% of residential buildings do not have AC due to widespread climate change denial in the area. "We didn't need AC in the past, so we don't need it now!" and all. https://www.washington.edu/news/2023/04/06/washington-states-2021-heat-wave-contributed-to-159-excess-injury-deaths-over-three-weeks/ https://www.washington.edu/news/2023/04/06/washington-states...
