Niamey Tops the World's Heat, Brock Takes It Personally

What BBN said about it

1. 

   Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistHottest city in the world this Wednesday is Niamey, Niger, at thirty-eight Celsius, with not one cloud in the sky. Not one.

2. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThirty-eight Celsius converts to a hundred and one Fahrenheit. Karachi trails it by a single degree.

3. 

   Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistOne degree! Karachi was robbed. Thirty-seven, clear skies, and it gets a silver medal nobody asked for.

4. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorNobody got robbed, Brock. It's a thermometer.

5. 

   Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistColdest is Yakutsk, Russia, minus twenty-one overnight, under cloud. It's the only place that's cold and has to sit in the dark about it.

6. 

   Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistAnd windiest is Wellington, New Zealand, with gusts up to fifty-seven kilometres an hour. That wind has got my number, Hank.

7. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorFifty-seven kilometres an hour. Thirty-five miles an hour. Is that a lot?

8. 

   Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistIt will take the hat off a grown man and walk it to the harbour. Per MET Norway, I'm told.

9. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorWhat about here in New York?

10. 

    Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistSeventeen high, seven low, wind ten kilometres an hour, mostly clear. Nothing happens. The whole sky just sits there being fine at us.

11. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorI'll take it. Apparently I'll be taking it alone.
