Thought would be interesting … As Paul Harvey would say “JUST THE FACTS”.
Someone shared 20 largest, most populated cities in the world … Largest is Tokyo, Japan … 34 million inhabitants … Largest US city … New York City … 22 million.

A slight chance of showers today, including thunderstorms likely after noon. Partly sunny, with a high near 88. Wind gusts as high as 17 mph and a 60% chance of rain. Tonight, low around 74 and a 50% chance of rain … More of the same Wednesday … high near 88 with a heat index as high as 100 … and 60% chance of rain…
