Brock Takes the World's Weather Extremes Personally

What BBN said about it

1. 

   Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistHottest in the world this Sunday is Niamey, Niger, thirty-eight degrees Celsius under a clear sky, and it's looking right at me.

2. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThirty-eight Celsius is one hundred and one Fahrenheit. Niamey's the capital of Niger, per Wikipedia. Is the sky actually looking at you?

3. 

   Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistNot one cloud, Hank. Not a single cloud to take my side.

4. 

   Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistColdest is Yakutsk, Russia, a low of minus ten Celsius, which is fourteen Fahrenheit, and cloudy.

5. 

   Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistIt's about four hundred and fifty kilometres south of the Arctic Circle and it still won't call me back.

6. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorWho won't call you back?

7. 

   Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistThe cold! And Wellington is the windiest, New Zealand's capital, sixty-three kilometres an hour. Every windbreaker I own just flinched.

8. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThat's thirty-nine miles an hour, from MET Norway's forecasts. Fine. What's it like here in New York?

9. 

   Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistA high of nineteen, a low of five, clear skies, and winds of nine kilometres an hour. It's perfect. I've never been so insulted.

10. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorNine kilometres an hour. You could have just said nice, and we'd both be home.
