Rain World 's karmic gates, which require players to have a positive hibernate to death ratio, were arbitrary goals "disrespectful" of the player's time, according to GameSpot. [8] Making players trudge through an area a dozen times, IGN argued, is "antithetical" in a game in which exploration itself is the reward. [ 4 ]
Christopher C. Burt, a weather historian writing for Weather Underground, believes that the 1913 Death Valley reading is "a myth", and is at least 2.2 or 2.8 °C (4 or 5 °F) too high. [13] Burt proposes that the highest reliably recorded temperature on Earth could still be at Death Valley, but is instead 54.0 °C (129.2 °F) recorded on 30 ...

For British Columbian rainforest patches, the mean annual precipitation varies between 788mm and 1,240mm. Because of low winter temperatures, winter precipitation generally falls as snow. [15] Snowpack melting and a relatively high precipitation in early summer offset any potential drying effect caused by the colder winters and warmer summers. [16]
