Cindy<a href="https://norcal.social/@LoraFisherPOV" class="u-url mention">@LoraFisherPOV</a> I still remember the <a href="https://spore.social/tags/heatdome" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#heatdome</a> in B.C. in 2021. It was awful. Somewhat lucky in Vancouver at just mid-30's, Celsius. The town of <a href="https://spore.social/tags/Lytton" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Lytton</a>, B.C. burnt down -- to a crisp. Their temps were at about 49C. A screeching train with sparks flying started that fire.So, I totally empathize with other places in the world experiencing 40-60C now. Just unbearable.

CindyLooks like a similar <a href="https://spore.social/tags/heatdome" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#heatdome</a> to the one that hit British Columbia <a href="https://spore.social/tags/BCheatdome" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#BCheatdome</a> a couple of years ago is now hovering across the southwest of U.S. Hoping the best for folks across the border. The <a href="https://spore.social/tags/heatdome2021" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#heatdome2021</a> killed almost 620 in B.C.<a href="https://spore.social/tags/ClimateCrisis" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#ClimateCrisis</a> <a href="https://spore.social/tags/ClimateChange" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#ClimateChange</a><a href="https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/extreme-global-weather-events-1.6908264" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no">https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/extreme-global-weather-events-1.6908264</a>

GreengordonCan you really call something a 1 in 1000 year event when they happen 2 years apart?“A ‘heat dome’ like this is a very rare occurrence in this part of the world this time of year... Historically and statistically speaking, it is rarer than a 1-in-1,000-year event.”Despite the intensity of 2021 heatwave which killed more than 600 people in British Columbia and caused mass die-offs of marine life...<a href="https://spore.social/tags/climate" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#climate</a> <a href="https://spore.social/tags/heatdome" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#heatdome</a> <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/may/12/western-canada-record-temperatures-heat-dome-wildfires?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no">https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/may/12/western-canada-record-temperatures-heat-dome-wildfires?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other</a>
