The current heat wave over California, Nevada, Arizona and New Mexico has temperatures hitting triple digits, with little relief at night. Hot weather is also baking the rest of the far West, including Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and parts of Utah and Montana.

At ASU in the 1970s we used to play basketball after midnight, when the temperature started to drop below 100.
I worked with a couple of framers in Denver in the late ’70s who told me they used to roll out at 4:00AM in Phoenix, work till 10:00AM, then take a siesta till late evening when the temperature had dropped below 100 before putting in their remaining 2 hours.

Just a few days ago it was snowing in the northwest.
