It is has been more than toasty, it is actually burning the leaves of many of my plants.
I have a friend that just got back from Florida after visiting a few days for the holiday. She said she'd take our blazing temps over the humidity any day. I don't envy you at all and sorry about your plants.

No way could I live out there, no way! If I was out there and my air conditioner went out, you would just have to call an ambulance for me.
I take thyroid medicine, so that has an affect on my body temperature making it feel like it's six or seven degrees hotter than what the thermometer says. In other words, if it says it's 90 degrees F, then my body gets the same effects as if it's 97 degrees F.

For the rest of the world, that translates to
When people comment on Arizona weather, they usually say "yeah, but it's a dry heat".
I like to point out that so is the inside of their oven.
Our record here is 122f/50c. They ground air traffic when it hits 120. I'm not looking to this month's utility bill.
Holy shit! I think I’d die. It’s pretty hot even here in da frozen tundra of Wisconsin. For the last two weeks, we’ve had temps in the 90’s with triple digit heat indexes. And the nasty humidity makes it feel like you’re covered with a wet towel. Yuck. I hope things cool down for everyone soon.
I normally spend weekend nights and sometimes more at the local neighborhood tavern sitting on the outside patio. It's not uncommon to still be 100 degrees at 1:00 AM. At least we have an excuse to not wear much but stupid me likes to leave my hair down when I go out and it gets pretty frazzled by the end of the night from sweating.
(it's about 3" longer now than when this was taken-Ugh!)
Seeing how we're also now at the epicenter of the worldwide pandemic, I haven't been out for the last three weekends in a row and will likely be staying home again this weekend? It's too hot anyway!
I have no life. (but have beer in the fridge!)

You have beautiful hair. Wish I could get mine to grow like that. Yeah, I can’t imagine myself sitting outside when it’s 100 degrees. No way.

I don't mind dry heat(though I've never been to arizona). But on the rare occasion it's dry here(MN) I don't mind the "oven" feeling.
It's rare, but 100 here, if it's dry, is nice(to me).
But we don't get that, we get mid 90's, with dewpoints in the 70's(feels like you are swimming when you walk).
Yeah, I hear you there. Same thing here in Wisconsin, 90+ degree temps with 70+ dew point. I don’t like to even walk in that weather, makes me feel like I’m gonna hurl.
It is going to be just to Hot to do anything, but lay around the house Naked and chase my husbands Tight Ass!
You sound like my wife. I'm just thinking about retirement , and having time off, well, let's just say the husband's duty has become more of a focus. I can't complain, I like it.

That a 100 degrees at 01:00 AM, common here, soon it'll be 103 degrees at 01:00 AM.
