    It is undeniable that temperatures have been steadily increasing over the last 40 years and also the hottest temperatures experienced during a season have been stretching later and later in the year.  Within 10-15 years I can pretty much guarantee Miami will have games delayed and/or postponed early in the year due to dangerous heat related conditions and wet bulb(measuring the combination of heat and humidity and the body's ability to cool itself properly) temperatures.  At this point it is almost unavoidable if they continue scheduling games at 1pm.  Or the NFL will have to accept player deaths and fan deaths from fans sitting out in those conditions drinking alcohol and generally not being prepared for it.  

     

    Yesterday's game was pretty close to pushing the limit of what the human body is capable of from a cooling standpoint and was honestly really dangerous to be playing in with on field temps at 112 degrees as reported by Eric Wood, and I don't think most people fully understand just how dangerous it was.

    Miami Average September Temp 2000= 84.73.

    Miami Average September Temp 2021 = 85.25
