Henderson, NV
I'm looking at the Wiki and it seems the June record high is 114, so it'll get beaten. Now after living in the Southwest for six years, I've come to believe that given the dry nature of our heat, it all starts to feel the same once you hit 100+. That said... 118 is a number I've never experienced. Interested to see if it feels any different. --- BKSheikah:The Real Deal http://i.imgur.com/gByqgPg.gif ... Copied to Clipboard!

Oh I used to live in Henderson for a year or so. Well technically anyway. My parents lived there for a year while I was in college, but I was there for breaks and such which might mean I was there for 3-4 months out of that year in total. In particular I was there during summer which is probably most relevant to this topic.
When I was there though I don't think it ever got above 105 or so. Up to that point I'm with you that the dry-ness makes it relatively bearable, but yeah I don't think I've ever been in anything near 118. So uh good luck? --- Congratulations to BK_Sheikah00, this year's guru to achieve contest enlightenment! ... Copied to Clipboard!

That's about a 10 degree F increase in the wet-bulb temperature compared with weather at 100 degrees F. That isn't insignificant.

I hate the summer so much more than the winter. At least with the winter if you bundle up you're okay. I feel for you.

I experienced that in Yuma 2 years ago.
Being outside even in the car, under shade or otherwise was pretty bad.

Hottest I've been in was 114 in Saudi Arabia
Highest I can remember in Oregon is like 101. It's mid 80s today and I'm perfect. Can't imagine what 118 is like. --- Menji+ http://i.imgur.com/pPZsSZU.gifv [ https://myanimelist.net/profile/Menjii ] Congrats BK_Sheikah, BYIG Guru! ... Copied to Clipboard!

Oof, condolences. I was visiting Arizona once when the temperature got up to 117; it was not fun. Stay as air conditioned and hydrated as you can (although I'm sure you already plan to).

The only part of the day that might suck will be the first few minutes of my commute home. We park in an outdoor lot with no shade, so by the time I leave the office, my car will have been in the sun for like nine hours. Internal car temp might be something potentially dangerous like 140.

Hot temperatures that are on track to only get hotter are probably my #1 reason I am glad I moved northward. Plus, thanks to the way climate works, Oregon has a sort of soft Mediterranean thing going on such that it doesn't even get murderously cold in winter.

I have been thinking of going to vegas before the end of the month but that makes me reconsider I actually recommend people visit in summer so they can get the "true" Vegas. Granted, it's a bad idea if you want to enjoy the outdoors here, but since most people only care about are the air-conditioned hotels, stepping outside for a few minutes at a time is a fun (albeit intense) change of pace that I think everyone should experience once. --- BKSheikah:The Real Deal http://i.imgur.com/gByqgPg.gif ...

100 and 118, especially in very dry climates, does not feel especially different. However, you will pass out relatively quickly in that weather. 118 is basically the point in which people think they're fine, walk a mile, and they're never heard from again. Drink plenty of water and stay the heck indoors whenever possible.
I had to walk a few blocks in 120 weather back in 2008. It was unpleasant -- and I was fit as a fiddle at the time, even. --- Intel Ops 1964 Kennedy | Die Hard Drive with a Vengeance | 54x Carthaginian Corsair Privateer | Guardian Force Bahamut ... Copied to Clipboard!
