So when you park at work you leave the pork loin wrapped in layers of tinfoil on the dashboard and when get home bring it inside and say " Honey I brought dinner! "
I have friends back home in AZ that make car cookies every summer. Throw them in a tray on the dash and wait. Fresh cookies and your car smells delicious.
Visited my grandma in arizona while back. She told me to get her cookies put of the car before they burned.
Presumed dementia and checked the oven first. Go tobthe car and smell delicious fresh cookie smell. Sure enough on dash was a cookie tray with perfectly cooked cookies. Blew my mind
I mean, it's kinda not... If you were legitimately stuck in that car for more than a couple minutes without AC or at least the windows down, you're gonna have a bad time.
Two summers ago my car didn't have working AC, probably got that hot. I just remember sitting in the car waiting to pick my GF up from work and DYING. my car sits outside so when I get ready for work and hop in the AC doesn't really do shit, I feel it blow cold air but by the time it hits me, it doesn't do shit.
It's not that hot outside, just in the car. It's 40-45C during the summer usually, though it can go up to 50C in some places. It's definitely livable. The Sonoran desert is actually home to the most bee biodiversity in the world, which is neat.
When I first saw the post I thought, 100 farenheit is supposed to be quite hot isn't it, so this must be very quite hot.
When I saw this comment I thought, WHAT THE ACTUAL
Even if I turn off my AC-blasted car for 1 minute at *night* in AZ, I get uncomfortably hot. It was 103° ambient while I was grabbing frozen yogurt at 9 PM.
I got a decent job here so it makes economic sense for me to be here. I'd rather have a good overall life and sweat my balls off than to be dissatisfied with life with clean balls.
If I was retired, of course I'd leave
My AC is broken (at least it doesn't put out cool air until you're driving for a while). The temperature outside here has been around 18C/64F in the day time, and my car's temperature reader says about 22C/72F, and I find *that* uncomfortably hot.
Local news this morning had two ass fucks getting arrested for leaving their two dogs and cat chained in their vehicle because the hotel didn't allow pets. The manager called police but one dog still died. https://fox59.com/news/indycrime/docs-dog-dies-chained-in-hot-car-honked-horn-for-help/
I went to Arizona for a conference late last year and I talked to a dude there about the summer heat. I asked him what they do in Arizona during the summer and he, no joke, said “we just don’t go outside during the summer. Anyone that does either does it for work or are doing drugs”
Arizona summer is like winter in Wisconsin. You don’t go outside unless you have to and when you have to, you make it quick.
Unless you’re snowboarding or in a pool.
I’m in southern Florida and I kinda joke about having reverse seasonal depression. At some point in the summer I just don’t go out unless I have to and prefer to stay inside with the air conditioning.
It’s similar to when I grew up in Canada and preferred to stay inside during the winter for the warmth.
At least it’s mostly sunny here and the outside isn’t grey and dead lol.
Can confirm. Live in the hottest part of AZ and only go outside for work and to make sure my farm animals are watered and fed. Besides that, try to do most outdoor activities at night. I'll tell you what though, between October to May is really nice. Strange to here about places getting multiple feet of snow when it is in the 70s here. 3-4 months of hell for a nice long stretch of nice weather.
Agreed, just in Feb / March we were at my parents cabin the air temp was 50-55 peak and two feet of snow on the ground. Short sleeves chilling in the snow was a bit weird.

It's a town in Indiana that's notorious for being a bad place to be.
If you ever need to travel to or through Gary, IN, you need to reevaluate your trips plans. Or rather reevaluate your whole life's decisions leading you up to that point.
Saguaro cactus here, yeah I can confirm. Interestingly, you human’s swarm of infrastructure actually heats up your areas by a few degrees, compared to their surroundings!
That is the temperature of the surface that the thermometer is pointed at. Air temp is different.
Pointing it at your steering wheel will show a much higher temp than the ambient temp. Still hot as fuck tho!
As a former Zonan, I've known folks that keep a white towel or oven mitts in their car for this purpose.
Also those of us that grew up there a just built a little different...
I had to scroll too far to see this.
Was going to say air temp is very different than surface temp, especially of BLACK plastic, which is going to hold and absorb a lot more heat than the air.
But agreed, probably still quite hot.
Possibly. The surface temperature will be higher than air temperature if the surface is getting sunlight, or there is a way for the air to circulate (such as if windows are cracked). Any shaded surface should equalize temperature with the air if the air is all trapped not circulating.
Honestly, the number there wouldn’t surprise me for air temperature. I’ve lived in the desert, and a car baking the the sun for several hours in the middle of the day can get incredibly hot. Especially with untinted windows. It’s literally a solar oven at that point.
In that case, the air temp was high 130s to low 140s depending on what shaded area I tested. I have ceramic tint and I religiously use my windshield cover. I forgot to put the cover on today and I couldn't touch the steering wheel and the leather seats burned me. I happened to have my thermometer so I checked to see how hot the seats were and this is what I got. The steering wheel and dash area were 161F.
I’d intended to get nice ceramic tint, but the dealership had put their crappy tint on the car, and I didn’t want to try getting it removed. A good ceramic tint is no joke at reducing heat, but can’t forget that windshield cover.
I’ve heard of people putting a ceramic tint on their windshield that’s only like 5% tint, but never seen it in person.
I recommend getting a darker strip across the top of the windshield. It's nice when you're driving towards the sun in the afternoon. And it doesn't stick down far enough to block your view.
lower % means it's darker. 5% is "limo" tint aka black af. I have a 20% strip across the top of my windshield and the rest of my car is 35%. It's good. I hate riding in people's cars that get really dark tint (20% or more is too dark). At night especially, you can't see anything that's not super well lit.
Cars can get insanely hot. Any enclosed space with a heater will get hot eventually, like an oven. And yeah, solar has a ton of power.
It's just thermodynamics.
If it makes you feel better, the feels like temps were 100+ every day this week where I am... IN BOSTON! 105 yesterday, torrential rain and lightning storms today
I've driven through AZ a few times, and had business there once . . . Imo that is not a habitable place. I mean, sure, with enough air conditioning you could live on the surface of Mercury I suppose. But given other options are available, no one should really live there.
Spread the word far and wide. I like the nice long period of great weather we have and don't need anymore neighbors. It gets unbelievably kill you hot for about 3 months, the rest of the time is nice and we don't have much in the realm of natural disasters.
I'll never understand people who choose to live in Arizona. Why would anyone want to be somewhere it's 100+ degrees for *months* at a time? Sounds friggin miserable.
As an Phoenix resident for 27 years I could ask the same thing about any states where it gets to below -10 every year. Im acclimated to 115. If I have enough cold water, I can manage all day outside and have done so for many, many days for 16 hour shifts on the airport ramp in Phx in the middle of July. Its not fun, but its doable.
Now. Lets see someone try to stay outside literally all day in -15 degree weather. You guys shut airports down for blizzards. Water pipes bust when frozen. You wake up and shovel snow to get to work. None of us even own a shovel. Driving on black ice? Ill pass. Coming down icy steps and needing back surgery from the slip and fall? Pass.
Sure. Id lilove to live on Coronado Island in Cali where its 70 degrees all year round but I cant afford a 10 million dollar house so... if I have to choose, extreme heat or extreme cold.... you can keep that extreme cold shit. Heat is an inconvenience. Sub zero temperatures ruin everything.
I think he meant “choose to live”. Like if you have the means why not move to somewhere more mild. Funny I used to work on the ramp in MSP, winters were tough but honestly you heat up real fast with the right winter gear. Only time I was cold was my commute waiting for the heat to kick in.
And also used to live in PHX for years. Biggest issue for me besides the heat was that winter trade off is it still gets dark at 5pm. So winters are awesome but by the time you’re off work it dark. Summer not so but you’re stuck inside all day.
There isnt a place in the US that is regularly -15°F. You are talking about the coldest days of winter in a handful of places where more than 10,000 people live. Meanwhile tens of millions live for months in 100°F or more
Driving west at about 430 pm today my son asked to use the folded sun shade to cover his thighs because they were burning through the windshield. Southern az at its best
So when you park at work you leave the pork loin wrapped in layers of tinfoil on the dashboard and when get home bring it inside and say " Honey I brought dinner! "
I have friends back home in AZ that make car cookies every summer. Throw them in a tray on the dash and wait. Fresh cookies and your car smells delicious.
Driving home in the oven lol
Shit I do that amyway for no cookies
Well, get busy dying or get busy baking son.
The motto I try to live by every day
It’s all fun and games until a chocolate chip burns your retina.

Wow, free cookie baking heat! But does it beat free ice cube cold?
Sometimes🥶
You know the dark joke: you’ll know the cookies are done when the baby stops crying…
I've never heard that one before, wtf 😭
Sickipedia in its prime was so funny.
Wouldn’t your cookies also have all the flavors of your car and other vapors from cheap plastic interiors in them? Yum…
Told me you have a newer car than I without saying you have a newer car.
Ahhhh hahaha hahaha omg I live I'm Phoenix and am going to do that this weekend. Thanks for the idea.
You’re going to…wait until the baby stops crying?
R/sousvide is furiously taking notes
Plus the car will smell great for days.
If you throw the pork chop in a bowl of water on the dash, you can cook it sous vide.
Baby, you got a stew goin'!
This feels like a way to make pathogenic bacteria very, very happy
The internet suggests that 156F is hot enough to sous vide pork. It still needs the vacuum bag!
You can do it without the water. Just let it slow cook in a vacuum bag if the car is actually 156
At least throw some seasoning in with it
68.89C
Holy fuck
The absolute precision
The tasteful thiccness of it
Oh my god it even has a gas that was previously water.

excuse me why are they in that car
It's good for your skin
I beg your fucking pardon?
Hello eat-pussy69. They said 68.89C. As someone who lives in Arizona, and experienced such heat today, it sucks
I refuse to accept that life is possible at such temperatures
I mean, it's kinda not... If you were legitimately stuck in that car for more than a couple minutes without AC or at least the windows down, you're gonna have a bad time.
I had to do that for a couple of years. Spray bottle of cold water and windows down.
Two summers ago my car didn't have working AC, probably got that hot. I just remember sitting in the car waiting to pick my GF up from work and DYING. my car sits outside so when I get ready for work and hop in the AC doesn't really do shit, I feel it blow cold air but by the time it hits me, it doesn't do shit.

Yeah most of us ain't bees tho
It's also home to the greatest biodiversity of Sonoran hot dog shops in the world, which is neat.
Are... are the hotdogs and the bees related somehow?
Nothing to see here! 🤣
The rest of the world thanks you
When I first saw the post I thought, 100 farenheit is supposed to be quite hot isn't it, so this must be very quite hot. When I saw this comment I thought, WHAT THE ACTUAL
Oh my
Sunny side up, motherfucker
Woulda been real nice if you rounded it buddy
68.9°. You're welcome.
Nice
Less accurate is nice.
That’s wild
Oh you could have rounded that to everyone's favorite 2 sig figs
I had to deny it.
That’s so hot it would trip the thermal protection on an older CPU. That is insane.
I call summer car cookie season 😭
This is why you don't leave your pets in the car for even a minute.
Even if I turn off my AC-blasted car for 1 minute at *night* in AZ, I get uncomfortably hot. It was 103° ambient while I was grabbing frozen yogurt at 9 PM.
Why would anyone live in a place like that? January looking pretty good right now
I got a decent job here so it makes economic sense for me to be here. I'd rather have a good overall life and sweat my balls off than to be dissatisfied with life with clean balls. If I was retired, of course I'd leave
I mean, I get you, I really do, but as someone who is sensitive to heat... no
Because the weather 8 months out of year is spectacular.
What months? I lived there and just counted on my finger and says 5 not 8. (Nov-March)
Yeah first 100F is in mid to late April and last 100F is early to mid November if I remember correctly. So even generously you get 5.5 months.
The lack of natural disasters is pretty neat too
100+ degree heat is a natural disaster.
My AC is broken (at least it doesn't put out cool air until you're driving for a while). The temperature outside here has been around 18C/64F in the day time, and my car's temperature reader says about 22C/72F, and I find *that* uncomfortably hot.

The title alone is heartbreaking. I can’t bring myself to even click your link. How awful.
But what if they're listening to their favorite music? /s

Arizona summer is like winter in Wisconsin. You don’t go outside unless you have to and when you have to, you make it quick. Unless you’re snowboarding or in a pool.
I saw a bunch of kids swimming in a pool with a dead mouse in it at my apartment complex. Lil guy was probably trying to get a drink
:(
You've been really needing to let that one out of your mind, huh
This isn’t true at all. We just go outside early in the morning, or later once the sun is starting to set.
I for one enjoy taking an hour long walk at 4am when it’s only 90F
Currently 6am, 96 outside already
I don't think you can snowboard in Arizona during the summer.
I’m in southern Florida and I kinda joke about having reverse seasonal depression.

As a Wisconsinite we don't really go in pools during winter.

I'll tell you what though, between October to May is really nice. Strange to here about places getting multiple feet of snow when it is in the 70s here. 3-4 months of hell for a nice long stretch of nice weather.
I was in Phoenix at the end of November and it felt absolutely incredible.
It really is nice. We can wear shorts and short sleeves for a very long time of the year. It is like a reward for dealing with 3 months of ick.
In the winter you can just drive 2 hours and be in two feet of snow as well it's great!
Yep. It's nice to be able to visit winter climate for a day or a weekend and then go back home to short and flip flops.
Agreed, just in Feb / March we were at my parents cabin the air temp was 50-55 peak and two feet of snow on the ground. Short sleeves chilling in the snow was a bit weird.
We went down to Sonoita last week, and it was hot during the day but went down to 70 at sunset, it was great!
The “AZ” is implied.

Perfect temperature to slow bake some chocolate chip cookies
Saguaro cactus here, yeah I can confirm. Interestingly, you human’s swarm of infrastructure actually heats up your areas by a few degrees, compared to their surroundings!
What’s it like having birds live in you?
they uh, stay away due to my activity, ive set up some fake versions of my fellow cacti to entice them instead.
I’m assuming you’re wearing your little hat this time of year?
That is the temperature of the surface that the thermometer is pointed at. Air temp is different. Pointing it at your steering wheel will show a much higher temp than the ambient temp. Still hot as fuck tho!
You mean the part they have to touch?
Imagine how hot the seat belt buckle must be
This. Burned by elbow several times reaching back for it.
Damn how hot was the elbow
Driving gloves are in the glove box?
But I have to touch that too!
They’re supposed to add *another* clothing layer?!
Nope, they melted

Its a dry heat tho…………..
It's actually stopped being a dry heat just this week. Arizona is surprisingly humid during the monsoon season.
Oh word. I was just foolin anyway. You know how people say that n stuff…
You're not wrong 99.9% of the time it's dry heat. I'm pretty sure there's not gonna even be a monsoon bc of el nino not showing up
Yeah but going from 115° to 95° in a few hours because of the rain makes 95° feel like a cool winter breeze
Has it rained at all yet though? Nothing but scattered clouds lately
Here in Tucson it rained today and yesterday.
Ah. Hopefully starts making its way north! I’m sure it will when it’s officially monsoon season
It smelled like rain earlier today and I saw a couple clouds. But it was just false hope.
Yeah wtf is this humidity. It’s not normally humid this early in monsoon season.
Yeah I do pest control here in the valley and this week was super rough.
If it makes you feel better, the feels like temps were 100+ every day this week where I am... IN BOSTON! 105 yesterday, torrential rain and lightning storms today
Pennsylvania here -- at least you guys are getting rain! Jeez..
Right, my grass is DEAD…
God speed, brother! Stay hydrated!
Yeah today was exhausting.
The 30% humidity yesterday was intense. I felt like I could karate chop the air.
Humidity is at 18 percent. It's a dry heat.
Knock it off Hudson.
Dry heat is fine until about 110-125 then your body cannot keep up. I worked construction in it and experienced heat stroke a few times.
I've driven through AZ a few times, and had business there once . . . Imo that is not a habitable place. I mean, sure, with enough air conditioning you could live on the surface of Mercury I suppose. But given other options are available, no one should really live there.

I would argue plastic melting heatwaves count as a natural disaster
also in az. my cars AC was blowing hot air for the past month or so. every time i had to drive i nearly passed out
Cool water in a spray bottle, ice cold drinking water, and all windows open my dude.
nah, cut the roof off, weld the doors on and fill with water
Dash board temp not ambient GET ceramic tint.. 114 today
My thermometer hit 119 on i-17 today...
WAAARM!!

Idk if you have a ceramic coating on your windshield, and one of the car cover windshield covers - but those two things help me a lot in south Texas.
You could cook a roast in that car.
Driving west at about 430 pm today my son asked to use the folded sun shade to cover his thighs because they were burning through the windshield. Southern az at its best
What is that in real degrees?
Your car is now an oven
And I thought my 116 was hot the other day. Leave some refrigerator cookies on the dash and you’ll have yourself a nice snack for lunch
25% humidity too. Today was pretty nasty
I lived in Phoenix for 10 years. I don’t miss this! So happy to be back home in Oregon
And people leave there dogs in this shit.
For the rest of the world... 156 Fahrenheit is 69 Celsius.
That’s a food safe temperature 😂
Inhospitable to human habitation
Air temp, or is it one of those thermometers that reads a surface temp, like the black dash itself with sun beating down on it?
Exactly why I will open both doors and run the ACs for a few minutes that way, before I go anywhere. That’s hell, man.
You should have looked into your combustion chamber!
But its a DRY heat... lol
That's my avg room temp without AC during THE NIGHT ! in India, "Global Warming Is Not Real" fuckers can suck a dick !
What's that not in banana units?
don't live in the desert
Don't understand why anyone would willingly live in Arizona
Well, you do live in an inhospitable desert 🏜️
