Welcome to hell on Earth in Australia - Higgins Storm Chasing[^]
Max temps have not gone below 32C for the last 2 weeks here on the coast - and they're getting worse before they get better.
Hard to keep good humour in these conditions, but the following link provides a whimsical yet disturbingly accurate log of these types of conditions:

Stop crying already and get yourself a swimming pool. If you look at the temperature at a place where I used to live[^] (of course six months back), you will find that it's just as comfortably warm. Hopping into the swimming pool when coming home was the best thing you could do.

Funny, that's lower than where I set the heater to after getting back from the desert.
My wife was not amused.

Well, our temperatures haven't gone much below 32°...
... Fahrenheit.

That's only 90 Fahrenheit. That's not bad at all. If it's humid that makes it worse but still, 90 is not bad at all.

Yeah but it gets to 38c and thats a little extreme when it lasts for days on end. And in the centre they are getting 42c+ but that is a dry heat so you get roasted instead of broiled.

Still, that's only 100 F. Yes, it's hot. But the southwest gets to over 110 often.

Read that he said that was the lowest day time temperature. Here West of Sydney we have topped 42 Celsius a couple of days in the past few weeks. Far from comfortable when it hasn't gotten below 25 Celsius at night for a while.

I took the dogs out after they woke me up at 2 in the morning. Standing on my deck looking at the moon an hour before it set. I saw this fly in front of the moon, flare bright green and disappear behind some clouds! I'm in central Michigan and the videos are from Illinois and Wisconsin!
Anyone else catch something like this?

I read the title and instantly casted Shell and Protect, before realizing you weren't casting Meteor upon us.
Well, I'd ask to Harry Blackstone Copperfield Dresden if something strange happens upon the shores of lake Michigan... I suspect something on Demonreach went awry (not that it surprises me).
I anticipate a LOT of discussions in the Jim Butcher fan club.

Not such large ones.
But when I was young we often spend the night at the beach watching the Perseids - Wikipedia[^] (honestly, doing that was not the primary purpose). I once saw one exploding when hitting the atmosphere creating a shower like a display of fireworks.

It was bright green. Perhaps Boron or or maybe copper, but copper has a bluish tint.

It seems that accurate words, like "meteorite", aren't available to the simple folk of Michigan.
