-### Event: 'speed-limit-change' _macOS_
+Emitted when the thermal state of the system changes. Notification of a change
+in the thermal status of the system, such as entering a critical temperature
+range. Depending on the severity, the system might take steps to reduce said
+temperature, for example, throttling the CPU or switching on the fans if
+available.
 
-* `limit` number
+Apps may react to the new state by reducing expensive computing tasks (e.g.
+video encoding), or notifying the user. The same state might be received
+repeatedly.
