We just spent 10 days down there and both me and my wife commented on the fact that we only saw license plates from AZ.

I bet my annual bill is less than yours.

On a side note, I've not had a power bill this year because of a deposit refund.

We stopped charging for power in Utah altogether. Fact

118 degrees isn't a thousand percent better than anything

cougarmanguy

6/19/17 6:02pm

Yeah, if it were 120 every day, that changes everything. There is a palpable difference between 100 and 120

Don't be so hard on Phoenix. I think it only averages 129 days of 100+ temperatures each year.

PHX was 106 on May 4th this year. May freakin' 4th. How's that "only 3 months of heat" working for you?

They get days of 100 deg in Oct too. It doesn't avg under 90 until Nov

Uh, great. Way better than temps less than 40°.

You can put extra clothes on when it's 40 outside

Well you can but CBers complain

40°??? Holy cow, that's short sleeve weather.

That's gotta be a HARD No.

Yeah, It's pretty awful heat. But wouldn't you say that flights cancelled for icy conditions in winter

Louis Litt

ice =/= cold. Ice is totally different

The narrow body planes have issues with that kind of heat...

I always thought it had more to do with the tires on the airplane only being

Its the air density

Northwest Cougar

It has to do with takeoff and landing distance and obstacle clearance.

But it is ironic that it's typically 3-5 deg different than St George Utah

Ain't no one vacationing in St George in the summer.

St George is many days hotter than Tucson in the summer. But Tucson is a higher

My sister and her husband do a scorpion hunt every night around their yard. They got 15 last night. That's about average

jdub

6/19/17 6:25pm

Why don't they hire an exterminator? Seems like it would be well worth the cost.

crack

6/19/17 6:43pm

Yeah, but what do you do when you need 2,800 scorpions to get back at someone?

I love it here. It's fun to spend several hours in the pool.

I can spend several hours in the pool here, and it's only 86!

It's not worth it to have a pool that can only be used a few months a year.

It's worse at the airport because of all the cement.

Phoenix is awful. No one should live there and everyone should just stay away.
