Idiom Scenario 1
Two colleagues are talking ...
Colleague 1: Is this the best the production department can do?
Colleague 2: In the circumstances, yes, I believe so.
Colleague 1: Why? What's going on?
Colleague 2: The situation is not good. Suppliers are shorting orders and workers are quitting in record numbers so having the reasonable level of production that we are still enjoying is a minor miracle.

Idiom Scenario 2
Two parents are talking at a school bake sale ...
Parent 1: Where are all the people? This bake sale is going to be a disaster. And we really needed to raise money for the school band trip to the national finals competition.
Parent 2: Having a terrible storm with high winds and pelting rain is keeping people at home.
Parent 1: I suppose that in the circumstances, having anyone show up is amazing. Perhaps we can reschedule the bake sale for another day?
