Not sure the heat was the cause of the power outage. Sounds like severe thunderstorms took out two high voltage lines at a major power plant. And the riots were caused by opportunistic criminals, likely poisoned by the proliferation of leaded gasoline.

The severe tstorms were because of the heat and riots and violence in general has been directly connected to extreme temperatures.  We see it every year here, as soon as it gets really hot the crime rate goes way up lol.

The biggest antidote to crime is cold weather, in the winter when it's cold and snows a lot, the crime rate goes way down.

Wow as the radar looks good, it is going to be a huge collapse for the HRRR to verify.

It does look like it is starting to move more SSE vs SE on radar so it might be right.  Even then it's not much rain for the city.

either way might see some sun after the complex passes

I remember as a little kid in the 90s my school would have a field day at Valley Stream State Park and the trees (oaks I think) would be covered in those hairy caterpillars. I haven't seen them in a very long time.

Did they just disappear for awhile?
