I stupidly looked ahead at the weather forecast for my area (AZ)... 115 degrees by late next week.
No one in the East or Midwest has felt the heat like that. It's unbearable and horrible and very dangerous.

WOW! ![]()
I hope you're able to stay cool, not have to go out.

I once experienced 114 degrees in Death Valley......it was awful! I could barely move....just sit and sweat. It was a dry heat. If you have humidity.....I can not imagine!

I was in Orlando a few years ago and it went up to 108....awful....I can't imagine 115!!

One summer I took a vacation in Palm Springs, Ca. One day during my stay, it got up to 116!
Toasty!

I surely don't find 115 degrees anything unusual if you live in the middle of the desert as those that live in AZ do. Just par for the course.

People think, because we're also in the desert, that we have weather like Phoenix. Thank goodness we don't. We're what they call "high desert". Albuquerque's altitude is the exact same as Denver's...one mile. It's a lot more pleasant here and really cools off nicely at night. We always get some snow in winter but it sort of evaporates and disappears fast. Pretty but not inconveniencing.

It's dangerous. Sometimes the rest of the country ignores the needs here because it's "expected." There are homeless people here and some with no AC. It's not par for the course. It's dangerous and consumming.

Just have to make sure to stay in the air conditioning and stay hydrated.

Daring, I agree with you completely. I lived in the Phoenix area for about 7 years and hated every second of it. The day I left, I burst into tears of joy. Not kidding. The heat was truly unbearable and exhuasting, in my opinion. And for those without AC, I can't even fathom how they survive.
