This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I live north of Tokyo and the temperature here and in many other areas of Japan this summer was the highest ever recorded since recording began in the 1890s.

I live near Austin, TX. We had a record for most consecutive days over 105°F that stood for nearly 100 years. 7 consecutive days over 105°F. We beat it twice this year. 11 consecutive days each time.
