Re:Canada weather: Dozens dead as heatwave shatters records by Sanzig on Wednesday June 30, 2021 @09:35AM (#27688326)
They're confusing it with a 35 C wet bulb temperature. 35 C dry bulb temperature would only equal 35 C wet bulb temperature at 100% RH.

You can convert with a psychrometric chart [1] or with a calculator [2]. At sea level, 35 C dry bulb, 80% humidity is about 32 C wet bulb. Dangerously hot, yes, but it won't kill you in 15 minutes.
