If there was an icon for a smiting or the apocalypse, I'd love to photoshop it on there.

Be sure to hold your spatula high in the air when the lightning starts.

I think it was the lightnings that function as deterrent, more than the heat.

Do you have tropical storms in Detroit, too? Having only experienced one Hong Kong thunderstorm, I can’t tell if it was the standard; but if regular Hong Kong thunderstorms are like the one I experienced, I doubt moonmonkey would be able to keep his burgers from flying off in all directions during any BBQ.

Rain flavors the meat. I just grilled outside in the rain last weekend. No way was a little water going to spoil that meal - although we did eat inside.

It does get pretty nasty, last year my garden furniture tore itself apart and my BBQ flew over to my neighbors garden.

Wow that is nasty. That's kind of what the weather in Colorado Springs has been like for a while now. Nice in Seattle though, can't wait to go back.

Hong Kong summer's weather could be very muggy. I was born in HK and I couldn't stand it when i went back there for vacation.

I never cared for any of Hong Kong's seasons when I've visited there.
