I used to live in McKinney, I remember the day it burned to ashes. I was a somewhat poor man, I had no car, and I had a basic, small but strong brick house. I woke up one morning at about 6:30am to see on the news that a large fire appeared in the center of town with no explanation, and that it was spreading too fast for firefighters to extinguish. From there I just made sure to not go to the center of town until the fire was put out. From there, at about 7:00am I heard that the fires were spreading and engulfing the streets surrounding the center of town, causing people to have to leave, although many people died before they could escaoe to a safer area of town. About 15 minutes later at 7:15am, the local government was urging any able bodied residents to immediately volunteer to fight the fire and possibly push it back some. The battle against the fire seemed to be not pushing it back, but at least stopping the spread, however by about 9:00am, the majority of people were out of water and other supplies, and from there, the operation had to be abandoned and mandatory evacuation orders were given. But then, something very bad happened at about 9:02am, the fires instantaneous spread 5 miles in every direction, so many people died, I could hear the screams echoing from that part of town. I was in a firetruck, but the firetruck ran out of fuel, so I, the driver, and the rest of the passengers had to abandon it and keep running. However, suddenly around 9:45am, tiny sparks were flying around the entire town, and within about 2 minutes, I heard explosions everywhere, at this time, I was about at the McKinney city limits. Finally, I reached the end of the city limits, once I reached them though and left town... I just couldn't go on, I stood, watching McKinney, or what was McKinney perhaps, burn. I remember hearing the final scream as it faded away, from there, I knew that most of the population didn't make it out alive, and that the town would never be the same, I also knew that the fires would probably keep spreading, that's when I had to make the decision, do I go on?. So I had to press on, but when I decided to keep going, I saw that the fires had nearly caught up with me, but then I saw something strange... they didn't spread outside McKinney, everything was fine in Greenville where I was, so I just walked deeper into Greenville and started my life over. This tragedy was many years ago, and I have managed to fix my life again, but I will deep inside, never be the same after that day.

Seared on liquid granite; people would pay good money for that level of culinary uniqueness. Somebody call Gordon Ramsey and tell him we found a location for the next Hell's Kitchen.

Hey siri, what's the weather? Siri: It's 101,105. Oh, it's a bit colder today!

You can even hear the laughs from the production team! My condolences to everyone who had family in McKinney

The speed and intensity with which he committed to this bit is amazing.

"Everyone in McKinney is dead." Everyone in McKinney watching this: 👁👄👁

“Everyone in McKinney is dead.” Dumbledore said calmly.

[@JoSephGD]

I love how meteorologists will nonchalantly go along with the insane temperature readings whenever they do happen. No wonder these sorts of moments go viral so frequently.

[@seekgaming303]

We should normalize humour and funny moments on the news

Was actually in Dallas that night. Even in the darkness of nighttime could actually see what looked like a white-hot firewall in the northeast direction from the city.

Did McKinney suffered an atomic bomb explosion?

[@4thDimensionalCube]

the average tempature of the sun in Fahrenheit is about 10K F° meaning the tempature of MCKINNEY is 10.1105 times more hotter (in tempature) than the surface of the sun.

[@letcreate123]

Not 10x hotter, rather it's 10x as hot. If you wanted to get how much hotter it is it's 9x hotter.

I can confirm it was that hot

[@SasukeUchiha-tc9xx]

At 10,000 degrees, the air turns into plasma. The whole town has essentially turned into a mini-star.

"Everyone in McKinney is dead" - that one forcaster

He had me crying 😂 I would start watching local news and weather if they acted like this all the time.

[@zachalejandro]

The fact that he said that very straight forward and with a straight face is such sheer talent. I would've laughed within the second that map pulled up

[@smashycars7]

I love how he just accepts the fact that it bugged and he just says: “ Everyone in McKinney is *dead.* “

[@cameronpeterson4172]

My McKinney folk I love y’all, see you on the other side

[@isaacmiller1280]

As someone who lives right next door to McKinney there I was amazed I was able to survive temps hotter than the surface of the sun.

[@flygonkerel781]

he pulled that off so smoothly

[@alco-bluebird]

I love the slightly long amount of silence after he said that everyone in McKinney was dead

[@kepckatherinec805]

McKinney just solved our clean energy problem! Power for all of us, forever-or maybe a catastrophic meltdown to the earth’s core? Stay tuned for the next weather news!

The Death Star must have done a Precision hit on McKinney thanks to a small rebel base there.

[@bluebear1985]

Every time a weather map malfunctions like this, I always think of how it happened to Cory McCloskey at FOX 10 in Phoenix in 2015. Another good one was to Jennifer McDermed at Fox 9 in Minneapolis in 2021. In that case, she pressed the wrong button on her clicker, resulting in multiple images of her going across the screen, making it look something like a psychedelic movie.
