Review of revision 4841220 [Passed]

Revision 4841220 of this article has been reviewed by Michael.C.Wright (talk · contribs) and has passed its review at 17:00, 24 February 2025 (UTC). Copyright: Passed Newsworthiness: Passed Verifiability: Passed NPOV: Passed Style: Passed Comments by reviewer: I made a few changes to the article structure to better fit the inverted pyramid (WN:IP) style of writing. We have no recommendation for dealing with temps in our style guide, so I changed the article to follow how temps were reported in a recent article titled "Heatwaves surge worldwide as researchers' analysis indicates global temperatures reaching new highs." I also reordered some of the elements, namely moving {{original}} to the sources section. See the edit history for other changes made as part of the review process. For future reporting, consider taking a photo or two, especially to support eye-witness details in the article, such as the use of tarps. If the statement were more consequential, it would have needed a source or been removed. Thank you for the original reporting! The reviewed revision should automatically have been edited by removing {{Review}} and adding {{Publish}} at the bottom, and the edit sighted; if this did not happen, it may be done manually by a reviewer.
