Hypothermia is defined as a body core temperature below 35.0 °C (95.0 °F) in humans. [2] Symptoms depend on the temperature. In mild hypothermia, there is shivering and mental confusion.
Central temperatures, such as rectal temperatures, are more accurate than peripheral temperatures. [30] Fever is generally agreed to be present if the elevated temperature [31] is caused by a raised set point and: Temperature in the anus (rectum/rectal) is at or over 37.5–38.3 °C (99.5–100.9 °F).
Highest dew point temperature: A dew point of 35 °C (95 °F) — while the temperature was 42 °C (108 °F) — was observed at Dhahran, Saudi Arabia, at 3:00 p.m. on 8 July 2003. [ 202 ] Highest heat index : In the observation above at Dhahran, Saudi Arabia, the heat index ("feels like" temperature) was 81.1 °C (178.0 °F).
Adults weigh 0.2 kg (0.44 lb). The maximum longevity of the northern treeshrew is 11 years. [citation needed] Besides humans, the northern treeshrew is the only mammal known to willingly consume spicy food. This is due to a genetic mutation rendering it much less sensitive to the effects of capsaicin. [5]

These dietary changes may also have altered human biology; the spread of dairy farming provided a new and rich source of food, leading to the evolution of the ability to digest lactose in some adults. [235] [236] The types of food consumed, and how they are prepared, have varied widely by time, location, and culture. [237] [238]
Sea surface temperatures are often in the lower 80's (26–28 °C) off South Carolina in summer and early fall. The temperature range measured in Myrtle Beach has historically ranged from a record high of 104 °F (40 °C) on June 26, 1952 and August 5, 1954 to the record winter cold of 9 °F (−13 °C) on February 18, 1958.

[29] [30] The classic symptoms include a four-day fever (the four Ds) and the three Cs—cough, coryza (head cold, fever, sneezing), and conjunctivitis (red eyes)—along with a maculopapular rash. [31] Fever is common and typically lasts for about one week; the fever seen with measles is often as high as 40 °C (104 °F). [21]
