If it's 90 degrees Celcius, I don't think you could sit there for an hour. If it's 90 american degrees, what kind of sauna is that?

I have a dodgy thermometer on the wall, and I tend to enter the sauna when it shows 80, by the time I leave it's usually been showing 90 for half the time. Celcius.

Perhaps we are missing some details with respect to humidity?

If it's a very humid sauna at 90°F, then your body can't regulate itself with sweat evaporation.

weird huh, in neither system does 90 degrees make for a useful sauna. that's either lukewarm, or cooking temp.
