HELP THIS IS DUE TODAY Read this quote and then answer the question:

“Those which survived could hardly be recognized as human. They had lost flesh and hair, the nails had gone from hands and feet…They spoke of heat so incredible that it was a marvel that ships and crews were not burnt.”

-Portuguese sailor

Why would the sailor be feeling such intense heat?

If they sailed the Arabian Gulf:

The average heat index often exceeds 150 degrees in the gulf, making it so a sailor would be drenched with sweat after a one-minute walk across the hangar bay or while merely standing watch in certain parts of the ship.

"Hot wasn't the word for it. There's some other word we need to come up with." Lenox said. "I've been joking that there's cool, warm, hot and then whatever the next word is, that's what it was like there."

The Arabian gulf was very muggy, and high humidity contributed to such high heat.

the causes of the dust bowls were severe droughts,   lands became dry and hard, temperature was higher than usual, hot and dry conditions killed crops, high winds. because of those factors, the winds kicked up dry soil and created clouds of dust.
