Note the temp on the instrument panel. Book says it measures OAT, but it always seems to read a couple of degrees hotter than the actual outside air... :isadizzy::angryfir:

if you speed up in me mums car it gets colder, bout as reliable as a weather forecast
yes i know i cant spell half the time! Thank you kindly to those few who pointed that out
Is true. Usually when I get into the thing at the end of the day to drive home, that's the hottest it will ever read, and it drops as I start driving. But not today. When I climbed in it read 104, and climbed steadily to 112, dropping to 111 by the time I got home. A 30-minute drive. Weather guessers say it's 107-ish. It got this hot in the Central Valley of California sometimes, but not so much humidity.

100.5 on my front porch this afternoon. I sure didn't like having to go out and work in it. But somethings have to be done regardless of the weather.

Watching the news, and the weather guesser says the humidity is 13%, which is exceptionally low. I guess I thought it was high because it's so friggen hot (Africa hot!!) Currently 108 and holding. Geez.

What I do is when the inside of my car is hot from sitting all day I roll down all the windows for a couple of minutes and put the ac on full load. After a few minutes roll them back up. It is much easier to cool down a 95 deg car than one that is 100 and up.

Paul, I forgot to tell you earlier to fasten your seat belt...
Most of those "OAT" gauges in modern cars actually measure the air temp in the ducting leading to the engine. It's part of the computerized engine fuel control system.

Well,we had 113* yesterday and it is sitting at 111* right now here in Mesa,Az.
The meteorologists (and therefore weather forecasters/reporters) give the OAT as measured inside a Stevenson screen (small box with louvred walls) to cancel the effects of radiation, wind, etc. It is very unlikely that an automobile will give a perfectly accurate reading.

It was hot here in North Central Ohio as well. The OAT thingie in my co-worker's Kia read 104 degrees out in the parking lot at 7:30 Pm....the temp thing at the bank read 105 when another co-worker drove to the drive through for some smokes at 7:30 PM...the thermometer on my mother-in-law's gazebo read 98 degrees in the shade at a little after 7:00 pm (12 miles difference between work and home). The thermometers inside the packing room at work read 115 degrees all night long!!!!! That is HOT HOT HOT!

I will make you all jealous. Current temp here in my home town is 2 degrees celsius with snow forecast down to 700/800 meters. My home town of Lithgow is at 900 meters.

"Some people might say that freedom is being alone in the bush with the only sounds being the murmurs from the birds ... but I believe freedom is at 5000 feet with no other sound than the engine roaring."- William Hutchison, a young man taken from us far too young (16).
Looks like the midwest and east are experiencing a typical Arizona summer. I just hope they can get the electricity back up and running.
Expect banging, belching and an occasional manly fart as you roar down the runway at full power. (I have found that the engine can make similar noises)
Oh yes! It's going to be a long hot summer. The Midwest and East aren't like Arizona. It's a humid steambath compared to the dry heat of Arizona. That's what they say anyway. You don't feel the heat so much in Arizona because it has dry heat. Well, so does Hell. Now is when you need oven mitts to hold the steering wheel when you first enter the vehicle.

I feel badly for those guys living in the south and on the east coast in this weather,some don't have A/C like we do here in Az.and when it hits 106* in "Hotlanta" it has gotta be misery in a sauna,not to mention the loss of electricity so they can't even get cool at the local lounge or go to a motel with air to get some relief!
I agree. I just got out of Maryland, Virginia and the D.C. area 6/28/12. It was bad enough when I was there. I'll be back in the area again around 7/15/12 with a couple of days in Buffalo NY prior. I'm glad to be out of the mess for a couple weeks. The 105 degree weather at my home base in Southern NV is very pleasant considering.I feel badly for those guys living in the south and on the east coast in this weather,some don't have A/C like we do here in Az.and when it hits 106* in "Hotlanta" it has gotta be misery in a sauna,not to mention the loss of electricity so they can't even get cool at the local lounge or go to a motel with air to get some relief!

My little Weather Bug icon just clicked from blue 99 to red 100 degrees, with a dewpoint of 78. Last night I came home at 10:45 to find one of the window A/C units dead. After 4 days of heat killing or nearly killing people, and with lousy rig A/C I really needed to cool off. But at least I have electricity so far and had one last old clunker unit to man handle into place which worked. Soooo glad I'm off today

Hottest we normally get is about 115 (in the shade), on rare occasions (normally with bush fires around). days over 40C (104) though are getting more and more frequent each summer. The pool is good..........
As it's winter over here, the last week has been around 20C (68-70) during the day with clear skies and around 3C (38) at night.
Got up to 97 degrees here in OBIOland today. Thank goodness we bought nice big energy efficient window A/C units for our place. The down stairs portion of our duplex is pretty open so can be cooled via a single 12 thousand BTU window unit. Bought a second 12 thousand BTU unit for upstairs, but the cool air was not making it from the bedroom to the office.....so we bought a 5 thousand BTU unit to cool the office. Luckily, this place is insulated like crazy (walls are rated at R20 and roof is rated at R30....outside walls are 6 inches thick and filled with dense spray foam insulation). The A/C units might have kicked on 3 times an hour (if that often even) today....and they only ran for just a few minutes each time. Right now, the office A/C is set at 75 degrees, but the room is actually down to a nice 71 degrees.
