If water boils at 212 how is the steam only 140 degrees?

[samadams2000]

It’s a tunnel Jim.

[DoughtyOne]

I’ve had that for about the last week, off an on.

Smile...

“If water boils at 212 how is the steam only 140 degrees?”

It’s cooling off on contact with ambient air.

At the point of wherever it’s escaping from its probably 212 degrees or higher.

“Pure Energy!”

[crosdaddy]

Sometimes ya gotta just turn the petcock to open and just let off the pressure.

[dynachrome]

The kraken is being released?

[gundog]

Relative humidity is a factor. The air will give up water vapor at the dew point, releasing latent heat, and forming fog.

[Karliner]

Uh oh, those funny looking scorpio-like bugs from the pit of hell are getting restless.

"how is the steam only 140 degrees?"

You will have to review the movie My Cousin Vinny.

*Are you telling me that water boils in your kitchen at a temperature that is less than the rest of the world, which is 212 degrees?

[DesertRhino]

Trapped energy? I saw that in Ghostbusters. Do NOT shut off the power grid.

[Rebelbase]

“Steam” is often used to describe visible water vapor in cold air.

I watch the heated bird bath outside steaming every morning.

[Swiffer_Ralf]

My thoughts as well...

Fake news, nothing to see here, it’s not a tunnel in which we are doing anything in, just magical dwarf farts.

And the idiots believe them ?????

[Swiffer_Ralf]

Indeed it is.

[Ciaphas Cain]

Something like that happened on Lost.

It didn't end well.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

[Cvengr]

Leak in a HTHW or Steam line in an underground casing perhaps?

[Alas Babylon!]

Pallies dig tunnel under Tel Aviv to cause terrorism.

Israel floods it with 212 degree water.

Pallies stopped and subterranean cleaning at the same time!
