A British media report about a heatwave alert issued for temperatures above 26°C in five cities has unexpectedly become a target of mockery by Indian netizens. Many Indians commented that 26°C is almost the same as the temperature set in their home air conditioning units, questioning how the British managed to colonize India in the past. While the news generated laughter and criticism, some Indian residents in the UK clarified that based on the feel or sunshine intensity, 26°C in the UK could be equivalent to 36°C in India. This interaction sheds light on the differences in temperature perception between regions.
