We are looking forward - not really - a hot wave of 42+C (~108 F) this weekend... What were you doing in that kind of heat?

Reminds me of my 3 years in Southern Arizona. Any outside work started at 5am and ended by 10am. Interestingly, all of the weather forecasts started with the burn index - the # of minutes you can stay outside unprotected and not get sun burn. Usually under 7 minutes. The children all learned about metal and the sun. They could get into their car seats, keeping their legs apart to avoid the metal clasp.

Greetings from Phoenix, AZ. At 108F we go about our normal day. It looks like 118F is forecast for this Sunday. Actually, we do try to get up to the higher elevations of the northern part of the state as much as we can in the summer. It looks like 107F in Sedona (4300 ft elevation) and 96F in Flagstaff (7000 ft elevation) on Sunday.
I was persuaded to be a Best Man at a friend's wedding in Phoenix. Outdoor wedding, 108 degrees, tuxedo! Luckily , it was a dry heat and it didn't last long before we went indoors for the the reception.

At this time of the year that would be a not so hot day in Texas and I would have adopted the lifestyle of a crocodile and spent most of the day in the pool.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats. His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.
all day in the pool, that’s a bit too much I think.

Putting bottled water in the freezer and wear a wet towel on my head. A bottle of frozen water is your fried; also prevents you from drinking too quick.

I live at 7000 ft in the White Mountains of AZ Yes 97 degrees daytime but by 8 PM we go down to 76 degrees BUT only 10% Humidity Having lived at Grand Canyon I would watch and provide medical care for hikers coming out of the bottom of the Canyon Some were not adequately prepared for the hike a few would loose their life because of this It is not a dry heat It is a HOT burn and dehydrate your body heat!

In times like this owning a house near the woods is priceless.

Umm, nothing outside! Living in the Southwest, we adapt. We pray the air conditioning keeps working :) And if you have to do anything outside, like yard work, you get out at 6am. Friends who used to live in Arizona consider it their winter. You only go out when you have to and go from house to car to store and back.
