    This summer was a consistent 110+ in Vegas... what makes it worse is that it was 105+ and RAINING last weekend. Luckily these next couple days are a cool overcast less than 100.

    My bro was in vegas a few weeks ago, said it would be 105 in the middle of the night (around 2am) thats crazy!! and he said during the day it was 120 lol

    I always think we have it bad here in the valley and then i remember about Vegas :D lol

    Been 95 INSIDE my shop the last 3 days. Kudos to you guys in places like Phoenix etc that see these temps regularly. Crazy hot.

    lol...hot and stuffy and smells like cow dung, eh? you got it bad

    111 F is ~44 C...damn that's hot.

    well vegas is the desert so i wouldn't expect anything less, but 102 F at night is crazy, you can't go out in the day, must spend the day light in the casino or hotel...haha

    If you are driving South on I-5 there is a big cattle yard that has mountains of cowcrap piled high; right off the freeway - that is what you are smelling and yes, the smell will get into the vehicle pretty much all the time.. :(

    I try to avoid driving that way unless its already dark or really early in the morning when its not so hot.
