Lake Havasu City.
I lived there then.
I stepped outside only once to get the mail. At the mailbox, I noticed I was sinking into the roadway.
It was melting.
I was on a plane back home (PHX ).. that day. The airport diverted all the flights to land in Tucson because there were no FAA guidelines for landing in that temperature. We had to lay over for a couple hours or so until temps dropped.
