Transcript of the segment
What BBN said on air. The facts are in the original report: Wikipedia.
Brock ThundersonNumber one hottest is Doha, Qatar, thirty-nine Celsius, clear skies. Not one cloud. It's doing it on purpose, Hank.
Hank LedgerIt's a high of thirty-nine in Doha. That's a hundred and two Fahrenheit.
Brock ThundersonTimbuktu is also thirty-nine, and it had the cheek to be partly cloudy. Partly! It's rubbing it in.
Hank LedgerColdest?
Brock ThundersonUlaanbaatar, Mongolia, minus ten Celsius, fifteen Fahrenheit. The cold won't even pick up when I call.
Brock ThundersonAnd the windiest is Tromsø, Norway, up to fifty-eight kilometres an hour, per MET Norway. It also has forty-two millimetres of rain coming.
Brock ThundersonEverything's happening to Tromsø.
Hank LedgerYou sound jealous of a city in Troms county.
Brock ThundersonI just want one storm that's mine. So what's New York doing? Seventeen high, six low, clear, eleven kilometres an hour wind.
Hank LedgerThat sounds pleasant, Brock. That sounds like a nice Monday.
