Title is a little misleading as they are referring to Death Valley - but it looks like records could be broken in a lot of areas of the southwest US with temperatures approaching 120 degrees.

We are entering the "find out" phase a lot sooner and quicker than even my pessimistic self could have predicted.

    Really? Where I am it seems like the weather has been really temperate this year, and the 10 day looks like low 90s which isn't horrible for this part of the year.

    I've not checked on what it looks like inland though

      Inland is where I be. It's not like Indio hot around here or anything, but it's been just under 100 all this week, and it's due to be over 100 all next week.

        I guess when looking at averages for July it's pretty high. I think I'm just so ready for miserable 100+ days in the summer that I assume it's all normal until it reaches peak miserable

        (Also I was sad about June gloom but knew it would suck once it passed and yeah, here we are)
