Summer is here, and that means it’s hot, usually above 32C, with
humidity hovering between 90 and 100 percent. It will cool off a bit
later this month, as the sweltering heat is replaced by torrential rain

environmental conditions when we set up the internet learning centers,
including attention to dissipating heat from the computers and their
power systems, and weatherproofing of the rooms. So far, we have had no
equipment failures due to thermal stress, and during the two major
thunderstorms that we have had, the windows and roofs have held against
the driving rain.
