Microbursts can cause extensive damage at the surface, and in some instances, can be life-threatening. I'd never heard of them before now either

There's probably 200+ microbursts across the Southwest US every summer. They aren't all rear end rippers.

Qaanaaq aka. Thule in the northern Greenland was 8.3ºC when their normal temperature this time of year is around -20ºC. Researchers also witnessed rain rather than snow at the highest point of the island, Summit Station, first time ever in observed history. This is fine.

On the bright side, in a few years when the winter heat domes cover the entirety of North America including the artic, I assume the tornados will stop since the boundaries where warm and cold air meet will be offshore.
