Temps this weekend in Glamis estimated to be 119 deg.

122 is The record in Phx. as well, I remember the day well. I had to work in a building that had no AC, then drive home in my VW bug that had no AC. that was a pretty brutal day to say the least.
I was in my Armada with no AC (broken), and the moon roof opened, because I USUALLY like heat.  But on that day, driving on Reems Road in Surprise, I said to myself "hey this is different....this is like an OVEN".

Had to drive from 89th Ave & Union Hills to 24th & Thomas then to South Scottsdale. There were three of us carpooling to the jobsite.  Remember at that time there was only the 17, No 101 and the 10 stopped at 35th Ave.  We stopped 3 times between the jobsite and 24th street for water/ gatorade. 

Normally we would have the windows down and the wing window open pointed at you. On that day it was so hot we rolled the windows up on the freeway.

If all that was with the VW Bug with no AC, that sounds like a tortuous ride.  And then the part about rolling your windows up on the freeway really tells the story!

Let's see what crazy weather we're in for this year.  It's coming soon.

 
This is when owning a Honda Talon really pays off because you don't need to worry about breaking a belt.  Just bring an ice chest and a wet towel and you're good to go.
I have the Honda Talon but “I gotta go where it’s warm.”
Too hard to keep the beer cold in that heat.
