The result was keep. Although numerically tied, the arguments for keep carry more weight than "per nom". – Joe (talk) 14:56, 1 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep - Several records were broken, with only one being succeeded 5 years later. Seems quite notable to me, but like the other heat waves for deletion, it may not be. Weak keep would be the best choice. Redditaddict69 03:28, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Most of the article so far is synthesis, but I've found significant coverage in a recent Times article. I imagine there'll be more in offline sources, given the number of records set. Daß Wölf 19:30, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
