Otherwise it is exactly the same situation.

You were bashing the people of California and the electric grid during record setting extreme weather (see quote below). It wasn't "slightly above normal" temps at all. People actually died during that heat wave. Now FL is getting some extreme weather a week later.

Sacramento and San Jose, where it reached 116 and 109 degrees on Tuesday, clinched all-time records — meaning their temperatures exceeded levels observed on any previous day or month. It's the “greatest September heat wave ever west of the Rockies hands down,”
