Thread 1: Dealing with Hot Environmental Conditions

What is the impact of humidity when combined with hot conditions in a sports setting?
What is the most accurate method of monitoring the temperature and humidity?

The discussion should run similarly to a real-time classroom discussion, so please respond to one another as if you were talking and asking questions. Playing “devils advocate” is allowed (just be respectful)!
Be sure to cite reliable and scholarly sources of information!
