LOL, I havent personally seen anything that extreme, but I just asked my friend here at work and he said Yep, he has seen trash cans melt here. LOL

Everyone here at work is saying " Hey ! its raining today, YAY?" I told them "thats not rain, thats less than a sprinkle".
I have been here about 7-1/2 months and it "sprinkled" rain for a whole day. Thats the closest I have seen to what we Alabama people know as "rain". LOL

But Monsoon season is now here in Tempe (mid june thru sept), so I am curious to see what thats like.

and shoes getting a little soft if you spend to much time out on asphalt or concrete.

Eric,
Good to hear you are enjoying it out there. I like to visit but I couldn't live out there because of the heat. I have been out there to many times on the 105+ days. kills me.

And yeah on the rain comment, it cracks me up the way they get exited over 'rain'. Wait till you see the dumbasses outstide playing in a lightning storm. Once you see that, you will understand how so many dumbasses get struck by lightning each year. LOL

Hahaha, yeah these people go crazy over "rain".

We started having dust storms last week. Those suck. I have those rain visors over my windows on my truck and I always keep my windows open about 1/2" to keep the hot air venting out.
Not a good idea to leave the windows like that during a dust storm... next morning I had 1/8" or more of dirt covering EVERYTHING inside my truck.

With me about 110-112 is where is starts to feel pretty hot. But honestly as long as I can find shade its not too bad.

My neighbors think im crazy being outside @ 112 degrees with a pop up shade over my truck working on it for 12-14 hours a day for 2-3 days in a row. LOL

The dust storms are cool to see roll in from a distance but yeah I imagine clean up from windows being cracked would suck. Not to mention pool clean up.
You will definitely have to keep spare air filters for all cars in case you get caught driving in one

SOLD. It now lives in South Texas, sold it about 2 months ago.
I also sold the 2019 Camaro SS about a year ago, had a 2013 Cadillac ATS for about 8 months, traded it for a 2021 Tacoma TRD Pro that I had for about 4 months. Now I have the Range Rover.
