>>>119 is not uncommon at all that time of year. No matter what, it's gonna be well over 100 and probably over 110 EVERY day. When I go to conventions and such I like to spend a few extra days around the city and look around - maybe goto a nearby national or state park or something. This is just stupid though - you're not going to be able to do ANYTHING other that hide

I've been here almost 9 years, and I've never seen 118. Looks like Bob did miss those 3 days at 120+.

But anyways, it's not really hot until it goes over 105. Under that, and it's about perfect. <g>
