#8 Thanks to the problems a few short years ago the Texas power grid has been updated and is holding on without brownouts, so far.

#9 In 1979 in Phoenix City, Alabama we had a week of 100+ temperatures. Lowest was 104 and highest was 107. I was working construction on a 3 tiered parking lot. Even my boots were soaked through. Also no AC in the house.

#12 Canada has napalmed itself so Ohio is pretty cool. I am hoping they burn some menthol next week to change the flavor in my mouth. Food is starting to taste funny.

#17 El Niño

Warmer ocean temps and a different weather pattern = hot weather in Texas.

Well known phenomenon. Anyone “shocked” is either ignorant, or trying to generate headlines and clicks to sell more advertising.
