Heartbreaking. I'm watching the live news feed from Channel 12 (I assume from Phoenix) right now.
And holy shit, the temperature there right now is 109. |

I assume you are talking about Phoenix, because other cities not as large here definitely get a bit cooler. Phoenix does not in the summer.
The concrete here just absorbs everything and radiates it all night. There are a few weeks in the summer where if it stays consistently hot for so many days on end, that the lowest night temp we will see will be like 90-95. We had three consecutive days last year where the temp didn't get below 100 degrees even at night!

But we like it. And it really isn't as bad as you think. I would take it over the humidity of the Midwest any day. I can't do that at all. You just know that you have about 3 months of hot as hell heat. But 70-80 degree Thanksgivings/Christmases more than make up for it! Plus my commute is never messed up because of the weather. lol

God, that's just ****ing terrible. I just read they were deploying their emergency tent/shelters when something happened to kill them all.

Press conference now... says 19 died, the entire crew. There was one survivor who was not in that area at the time.

How tragic. They're saying that the Yarnell fire appears to have been started by lightning. It would be doubly tragic (if that's possible) if it weren't of natural cause.
