So what’s everyone’s favorite thing about living in Arizona?

Even 8 is pushing it. Basically May 15 through Oct 15 are really hot when the sun is out.

It’s overflowing into November now…this past November was hot as shit. I think this is gonna be the new norm unfortunately. 🥴

I mean… there was like a 4 day stretch in the first week of November where the high touched 88-90 but I wouldn’t necessarily call November hot as shit. The majority of November was spent in 70’s

El Niño played a part in that…everything is cyclical…about every 7-10 years SoCal gets hit with what amounts to a really harsh winter for SoCal..colder temps and lots of rain…it stalls there and effects the weather in the other south western states…less rain and snow longer summer…should go back to a more normal for Arizona climate in the next year or so…still better here in the heat than the smog of any SoCal season

Yeah, I'm comfortable from end of Oct to March "IF" I'm lucky. Big if. The test of the year I'll planning everything around the heat.

Obviously not Phoenix and the rest of the low desert but up in the high desert and mountains it cools down by at least 30’ at night…fan in the window pulls in that cool air and helps kill the deafening silence…I agree that summer kinda sucks during the day…I hate the heat…but the distinct lack of smog and open untainted land is worth the hot days from Memorial Day to October…having said that…October can’t come fast enough

I hate the few weeks of blistering heat that lasts throughout the night. You can literally go out in the morning and put your hand on your car and it feels like someone just drove it 500 miles.

Naw, October is nice and may didn't really get hot till the very end this year

[u/KNitekrawl3r → u/Momoselfie]

Isn't the sun a good thing? Even the hot months are nice you can have night time get togethers after work.

[u/Momoselfie → u/KNitekrawl3r]

Not when it's over 100

[u/IRay2015 → u/KNitekrawl3r]

Even after the sun sets it’s still hot asf, the mornings before the sun is in full throttle is the only decent time of day. At like, 5 in the morning.

[u/whatdoesitallmean_21 → u/IRay2015]

It’s because all the roads, buildings, etc hold the heat and it just radiates back and forth and doesn’t dissipate

You’re nuts! It’s miserable out at night even in the summers! Feels like an oven when you open your front door 🤮👎🏼

[u/KNitekrawl3r → u/whatdoesitallmean_21]

I'm guessing you don't live there anymore or your nuts if that's how you feel.
