Oh, good grief Arizona. It's summer. Summer is hot. This is on my front porch last year and partially in the shade. This is normal. I have seen the asphalt melt, mirrors fall off of vehicles, and windshields explode if not vented. And yes, we can fry an egg on the hood of a car that has been sitting in the sun. I'm not sure why anyone would want to, but we can.

“It’s hot in Arizona in the summer. Alert the media.”

This has to be Fake News

I see a lawsuit coming. If you can sue the gun makers for someone getting shot by an illegally owned gun and you can sue spilling your coffee made at a fast food restaurant in your lap and it burns you and collect on either, then you can sue the pavement makers for burns received. And don’t forget the guys that put the lines in the middle of it. They were contributory because they didn’t put osha red on the outside edges to indicate the need for protection equipment. Seems simple enough even for the NTSB and especially for our DOJ.

things we did 60 years ago in upstate ny. If it was hot in our city...mom put the sprinkler on for us...and kept us out of the sun. NONE OF US ever got a sunburn when we were young.

Now when we got into our teens...I'll call them our stupid years, yup...baaaaad sunburns.

Construction workers work in 110 degree weather? That should be illegal.

Cheap electricity is the answer to almost everything humans need.

Exactly so...

They have the annual egg frying day in Oatman every single year where they fry eggs in a pan on the sidewalk

Yeppers. Satan is the father of lies who spawned the evil philosophies to which liberal cling.

As in the allegorical story of Dante's Inferno they firmly believe that it is better to rule in hell than serve in heaven. Even if they have to make hell for everyone else.

Extreme heat in Arizona increased hospitalizations to pandemic levels at one medical center (CNN)

https://www.cnn.com/2023/07/17/weather/southwest-us-arizona-record-heat/index.html

Note: Correction: A previous version of this story mischaracterized the status of the 55 other suspected heat-related deaths; they are still under investigation. It also misstated where the deaths occurred; they were in Maricopa County.

>>if they could fry an egg

Just a FYI to report…

IH30 East bound just west of downtown Ft Worth (Texas y’all), far right lane, in front of the Speed Limit 60 sign is a portion that is left of a baked on blood spill from seven years ago.

A guy had gotten out his crashed vehicle and was hit/killed by bleeding out quickly on the concrete on a typical Texas Summer day. The blood spill baked on the concrete is taking years to weather and erode from vehicle traffic.

The full outline of the original blood spill can be seen and about 2 square feet of the baked blood is still there 7 years later.

It ‘s just a interesting landmark/road marker I point out to as we drive past it.

Yes, concrete gets hot.

Likely another misleading title. The surface is likely not the ‘ground’ but a man-made surface.

They always did the egg thing in Yuma. This crap is all trying to convince us climate is changing and we should live in squalor and pay more tax.

It’s weird though how, NO MATTER HOW HOT IT GETS, foreign invaders will still hike thousands of miles to wade in the Rio Grande and demand that the Border Patrol and National Guard give them ice cold water purchased with taxpayer dollars. I’m not buying this heatwave crap. They still keep coming. Three and four hundred pound mommas carrying three toddlers don’t have any problems walking uphill for thousands of miles in this so-called climate change heatwave.

Given the large number of homeless drug addicts in Phoenix, “passed out on the pavement” is probably more accurate.
