Last summer most of the time was 110-114 or so and thats livable. We have 9 months of absolute heaven and while its snowing on the rest of the country we are in shorts and a tee shirt with the top down.

Sorry for the misquote. I have spent some time in various deserts (Vegas, Mojave, Las Cruces, etc) and just remember that during the hot seasons, the heat never stops.
Kind of like when I lived in NJ, the cold seemed to last for ever sometimes.
After doing a quick fact check:
"The hottest day recorded in Phoenix was 122 degrees on June 26, 1990."
Another Example:
Death Valley is one of the hottest places on earth, attaining the second-highest temperature ever recorded, 134 degrees F. in 1913.
Don't get me wrong, I would actually live there if life takes me there.....
