A group of students were playing basketball together during recess. The temperature outside was 30.5 oC (87 oF) and the sun was out. The students ran, shot baskets, and dribbled the ball for 30 minutes. When they finished their game some of the students made the following comments: Student 1: Wow! I am so hot and sweaty! I need some water to cool down.

Student 2: My cheeks are really red.

Student 3: I am breathing so hard, I can barely catch my breath!
