It’s so hot in Australia that bats’ brains are frying - The Washington Post: "In Sydney, temperatures hit 117 degrees Fahrenheit on Sunday, the hottest it has been since 1939."
-------------------
While Republicans in the US make the ridiculous claim that cold weather in the winter here means that there is no global warming, there is a heat wave in Australia that is killing bats by the hundreds. Koalas have to be sprayed with water to keep them cool. Asphalt roads are melting.
And of course, extremely cold weather is also evidence of global warming, because it means that the jet stream is losing its ability to hold Arctic air near the North Pole, where it belongs. So, when it gets so cold in Florida that iguanas are falling out of trees, that is consistent with the patterns of extreme weather that climate scientists have been predicting for years. There is also increasing evidence that the Gulf Stream may be slowing. And of course the Arctic is melting.

Quit with the partisan attacks.
The climate has been changing since the beginning of the Earth including cycles of heat and cold largely independent of humans. The issue now is whether human behavior or change in human behavior will/can have an effect. People will complain either way regardless of whether it's global warming or global cooling.
One thing that won't change? HOAs can't do a damn thing about it and they certainly can't "protect property values".
