Wizkiddd - vegetation certainly will grow very fast in the initial stages of a heatwave after a rainy spell and the humidity rising from the soil will make the heat even more unbearable.
Euromodeller - of course a couple of cops starting to arrive & more people watching in amazement (and no doubt other emotions) might have made the scene even more believable.
Cool, I'm glad I was able to help bring back memories for you. I had no idea where those shops were from, I just liked the look of them (I needed some smaller shops and they were perfect).
I liked your shot too, very unique way of conveying the heatwave through a screenshot.
