January 2014 southeastern Australia heat wave

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Fails WP:NEVENT. Not an exceptional heat wave compared to the early 2009 episode and the 2012–2013 Angry Summer in the same region. — JFG talk 20:51, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete. Regular (non-notable) heat waves will still break records and kill the elderly, ill, etc. The only point of interest here is the number of dead, but it's mostly talking about increased numbers of cardiac arrest with some nuance. A little bit more might move this towards notability, but this one seems to fall in the realm of a regular heat wave from the reporting I've looked at so far.
