Oh please, I live in the desert! Those temps are nothing! I'm a desert rat, the low 100's here is quite comfy! I'd take these temps here over back east any day. I've lived in Alaska , Florida and, Japan, and places in between and there is nowhere else I'd rather live than Arizona!

59F here. Highs have been in the 60's to low 70's for a couple weeks now. Nice - seeing how most German homes & many buildings aren't built with AC.

Reminds me of Vegas a few weeks ago...

More heat = less oxygen for combustion = less timing = less power.

I love those 50 degree days where the car feels like an ax murderer.
