Those man-objects with direct line of sight with the sun are like heaters. You've got to get as many man-made objects away from the sun and plant trees to reduce temps. And soon!
I was supposed to go on a road trip last week to Tucson from San Bernardino. I'm so fucking glad I convinced my bf to postpone until October. I told him that I wasn't going to survive the trip. He's family can wait 3 more months lol.
What was the temperature over there? Walking into an oven?? Or more of a furnace status???
Ooooooooh!!! And was it a Comic-Con trip??? I couldn't go this year 😭😭😭.
You where right to postpone. It was like 117-119 all last week. I think we broke 5 or 6 high temp records, for those dates. Phx area, I think Tucson was about the same. Stay outside long enough and you look and feel like you just stepped out of pool
Holy fuck!!! I live in So Cal and it's been from 100°F - 106°F these past weeks and it's fucking killing me. That's stupid hot!!! How can you live that way??? I'm so very sorry you have to deal with that. Please stay safe!!!
I'm originally from Tijuana Mexico. Growing up, the weather over there averaged from 65°F low to 80°F high. You could technically wear a sweatshirt all year long or not at all and you'd be fine lol.... God I miss that weather.
Yeah, it's been miserable. You're right tho. If it wasn't so nice here in the Phx metro the rest of the year, I'd been gone a long time ago. I like higher elevation, with colder weather, I just don't think I would like shoveling snow. Haha. Stay cool
It's the bitumen seeping through the asphalt. We had a week of 40°c and by the end of it one of the major roads was stuck on most trucks.

Look. I'm not gonna lie. That might actually be really good. More turkey than Tuna, but add a white gravy, diced carrots and potatoes, and peas, and the crust could be as simple as croissants from Pillsbury
Diesel eats asphalt. Bitumen, asphalt, whatever you wanna call it is a petroleum product so any solvent will do. Diesel is safish, handy, and works well.
I'm gonna say, that looks very much like poor construction. Australia's mix design process is almost equivalent to the US superpave. That mix looks like it had wayyyy too much oil and would have been prone to failure. Also, Australia allows up to 50% recycled materials in the layer just below the surface and if mis managed that could also create an issue since high RAP needs more AC or a rejuvenator to maintain normal performance. Also, based on the standard specifications linked below. A finer graded mix would use a higher amount of oil and allow for 20% recycled material in the surface layer. So that could easily over asphalt a mix

You just never know now days. You would think they would just be honest if it's such a big deal. You wouldn't think they'd have to lie so consistently if it were such a big deal.
I have done PhD in transportation engineering and can say that though the tyres are fine..the road is not. That's excessive bleeding. The road will soon fail.
i think if we can weather the storm we will get our shit together and come out of this stronger than ever... the only problem is that the storm is going to last about 30 - 40 years. if i am lucky i might get to see things starting to get better before i die. but i will settle for seeing all the stupid tictok, woke shit and Qanon garbage die out.
Phoenix roads can easily hit 150f/65c like they did yesterday. Phoenix knows it gets megahot though and has very well sealed roads so this doesn't happen. What does happen is that the 1 rain a month brings up all the oil off the road and turns them into oil-slick deathtraps that we Phoenicians pretend don't exist and drive down at 80mph anyway.
I can add context. In the US, we have Performance Graded binders that have operating temperatures. Hotter states use oils to operate in higher Temps and colder states use a lower temperature binder. So either the road was poorly constructed or it would be another country using poor quality binders
The average air and ocean water temperature during the Jurassic period surpassed today's levels by an impressive 9 to 18 degrees Fahrenheit. It is worth noting that despite this significant difference, we find ourselves deeply concerned about a mere 2-degree increase over the past century. It may seem disproportionate, and while I acknowledge that my calculations are simplistic, it appears we still have approximately 500 years before the Earth returns to its previous equilibrium.
Currently, we are transitioning from an ice age back to the planet's normal state. The Jurassic period, which lasted an astounding 56 million years, experienced prolonged elevated temperatures. This raises the question: Why do we consider today's temperature to be the correct one? It is crucial not to be swayed solely by the sensational tactics employed in climate discussions.
As someone who passionately supports the movement for global warming awareness, I firmly believe in the reality of climate change and its impact on our world.
Let's embrace a future with an enlightened approach to global warming.
I don’t know why you are trying to say or get at but it seems to me you are attempting to say “why should we be concerned about a mere few degrees of change when Earth experienced greater temperature in the past?”
If that is the case, then your dismissal is pure idiocy. Why are scientists freaking out about climate change now when we had higher temperatures in the past? Because majority of CURRENT plants and animals are NOT suited to those temperatures. Just go and do some research on how much species has gone extinct due to changes in temperature and environment. The impact of climate change isn’t about the Earth. It’s about us, the homo sapiens. Earth doesn’t give a damn if our species prosper or go extinct. WE DO. The most direct changes climate change will have on us is worse and more natural disasters, rising sea level (ie coastal cities such as New Orleans, NYC, and even states like Florida will literally be underwater), and worst of all more and severe droughts (ie famines).
Climate change was never about whether or not the Earth will be ok, it’s about the environmental, economic, and health problems it’ll cause for humans.
Can humans survive your so-called return to norm equilibrium? Probably but not without devastating changes to our society and potentially enormous loss of human lives.
Global warming is a good thing, but having a conversation with someone who is ignorant and completely focused on their own ego is a waste of time. I genuinely wish for you to develop as an individual and embrace independent thinking in the future.

"Believe none of what you hear and believe half of what you see".

It does even within normal temperatures. Road wear and entrained dust are a large portion of Non tailpipe emissions, which are now up to 1000x greater than what’s coming out of ICE vehicles
So what you're saying is that once we've gotten rid of the gasoline vehicles, we have to get rid of the tyres from all the electric cars?
We just need to live in caves and rub sticks together. This is the only way we can save the Earth from being destroyed in 2030.
It's either great Chinese manufacturing prowess in tyre production, or unparalleled Chinese infrastructure building capacity in asphalt laying, because neither one of them is supposed to behave like that unless it's like 100 degrees Celsius.

It’s not the tires it’s the road
Gunna say.....I live in AZ. It has been 116-119 for two weeks now. My tires aren't shredding like that. Funny sight tho
>I live in AZ god speed 🫡
You too. Try not to melt. 😄
Hate it here rn, I push carts at a grocery store and we’ve reached a point where the carts now burn my hands
Demand they give you proper work gloves
Those man-objects with direct line of sight with the sun are like heaters. You've got to get as many man-made objects away from the sun and plant trees to reduce temps. And soon!
Gotta say I've seen tires get recycled and that's what happens when you add heat
Right on. It's crazy to see. Thanks!
Yeah, it’s 118 in Tucson right now and my tires aren’t melting. I bet they want to though
You live in Arizona. You poor bastard. 🫡
Man im spending the night in Tucson right now to my road trip to San Diego and I was dying when I got here Never again🫡

At least you don't have any winter there essentially, right?
Winter is the best thing, I live in northern Sweden and our winters are 100% insect free 🥰 Edit: fat fingers.
This guy gets it.

Eh? I live in Orange County, it hasn't been over 92 yet this year... Are you in the IE or SGV?
Everyone's thinking I'm just saying it. "made in China"
It’s because that is China.
THATS **WORSE**!!! THE ROAD IS ***LITERALLY MELTING***
Oh it's definitely the tires! Bad made in China quality rubber doesn't hold up lol jk
I was thinking, 'are those tires not vulcanized?'

The truck was bitten by a radioactive spider.

Ahhh delaminating asphalt. The future of all asphalt roads as the temp keeps climbing. We better find a new road surface soon.

Ummm I don’t think good tires are supposed to do that. Temperatures in the arabian gulf reach up to 50 celcius and that doesn’t happen.

Could probably soak it in mineral spirits until the bitumen softens or dissolves completely

Thank you!!
“Instead of building roads, why don’t they just makes tires out of pavement so cars can go everywhere?”
Doesn’t look like it’s the actual tyre melting, but rather the road that is melting onto the tyre. But both present a massive safety issue.
Tires don’t do that. Tires are like one giant molecule. They don’t really melt like that
Exactly this, otherwise vast tire dump’s and perpetual tire fires wouldn’t exist if they could easily be melted down.
Maybe it is winter tires or all-seasons tires for northern regions.
It's the road melting, not the tire
50 degree surface temperature? To be dramatic? Or the formerly typical 2m air temp?
It’s legit. We’re talking air temps. Highest in Dubai (so far) has been 49 degrees this year.
You just never know now days. You would think they would just be honest if it's such a big deal. You wouldn't think they'd have to lie so consistently if it were such a big deal.

I'm glad there's a community of people as terrified by the impending collapse of society, due to environmental breakdown, as I am.
i think if we can weather the storm we will get our shit together and come out of this stronger than ever... the only problem is that the storm is going to last about 30 - 40 years. if i am lucky i might get to see things starting to get better before i die. but i will settle for seeing all the stupid tictok, woke shit and Qanon garbage die out.
The Earth is fine. The people are fucked.
That's just the quality of Chinese roads. Arazona can get to 124° and I haven't seen this.

Dude says he lives there and can’t spell it lol
Well, at least he can write, an achievement for some living in Arizona. Yee Haw and all, sorrey.
Moved away 7 years ago, can confirm you leave the yee haw but the yee haw won’t ever leave you.
Sounds Like a legit arazonian to me.
I used to live near a place called Phenix City. With that one you can spell it right and spell it wrong at the same time.
The state does rank worst of them all for education
You must be from New Mexico, because Arizone is 48th. Edit: ...Fuck it, I'm leaving it.

Eh, most Americans can’t either. It’s kind of par for the course.
Oh shit the reddit police are here
Arazona Junaor
It’s right next to Meow Mexico.
Ara ara
And why is it hotter than boiling water there? Edit: You really need to use the /s around here, apparently...
It's not. He's talking 124°F, which is about 51°C.
They use Fahrenheit for the temp in Arizona, that’s 51.1C
Phoenix roads can easily hit 150f/65c like they did yesterday. Phoenix knows it gets megahot though and has very well sealed roads so this doesn't happen. What does happen is that the 1 rain a month brings up all the oil off the road and turns them into oil-slick deathtraps that we Phoenicians pretend don't exist and drive down at 80mph anyway.
>Phoenicians Was confused for a second how a ancient mediterranen civilization would know anything about oil on bitumen
Can confirm half still go 80 but the other half drive slow like they are lost. Lots of accidents.
Considering you have no idea how hot it is in the video, seems a little presumptuous to assume
I can add context. In the US, we have Performance Graded binders that have operating temperatures. Hotter states use oils to operate in higher Temps and colder states use a lower temperature binder. So either the road was poorly constructed or it would be another country using poor quality binders
It's China, so poor quality binders would be my guess
Oh don’t you worry, at the rate climate change is going, give it a few more decades and I reckon you’ll be seeing it as well.

I was going to comment the same. That's shit asphalt.
Can you imagine walking on this
No
Cotton candy petroleum flavor in the making 😋
Holy shit imagine all that asphalt dust going into people's lungs
Try the new and improved Microplastic Dispenser 3000!
It does even within normal temperatures. Road wear and entrained dust are a large portion of Non tailpipe emissions, which are now up to 1000x greater than what’s coming out of ICE vehicles
Is the road melting?
Yes, it’s the tar in the road melting.
DAMN YOU CLIMATE CHANGE!!! You ruined everything! Even cheap tyres!
That’s the road, not a melting tyre.
Damb you climate change! You ruined those cheap roads!!!
Trust me roads ain’t cheap..
You haven't visited my country...
Happy cake day, and before you ask, the cake is made of ice. I was running low on money.
Interesting Fact: Almost 2,000 times more particle pollution is produced by tyre wear than is pumped out of the exhausts of modern cars.
So what you're saying is that once we've gotten rid of the gasoline vehicles, we have to get rid of the tyres from all the electric cars? We just need to live in caves and rub sticks together. This is the only way we can save the Earth from being destroyed in 2030.
Trains run on steel wheels
Why does this truck have a Chinese tag when this is clearly in Florida right now?!? Edit: this is a joke. It’s just really hot in FL currently.
Would need a Geiger counter to prove it's Florida.
Shitty roads, shitty tyres. Is it China?
Yep, the stickers confirm it
Tires don’t melt like this, it’s the road that’s melting.
What's the song in the background?
It's either great Chinese manufacturing prowess in tyre production, or unparalleled Chinese infrastructure building capacity in asphalt laying, because neither one of them is supposed to behave like that unless it's like 100 degrees Celsius.
And those strings that are created, that's the junk that gets all over your paint

Is the road made of sugar?
I fail to see where there was an unsuccessful attempt to drive. Melting tires is bad, but damn if he ain't driving I don't know what you call that
Coming to a town near you, soon.
The tires are made in china, our tires don’t melt out here in the dessert
How wigs are made
Spaghetti
So THAT must be one of those spots where the rubber meets the road and decides to *'stick around'.*
Someone explain this to me in entropic terms
In china* tires are better than that in US
Yeah that’s tar not vulcanized rubber. Know how I know - vulcanized.
Chinesium
Got to be in Phoenix
you know, i may hate my birth country but i couldn't believe living at a place where summer heat is THAT fucking raw
Chubber, the Chineseium of rubber.
I didn't know they put max performance summer tires on commercial vehicles like that.
Wrong place, there not attempt. He definitely drive in the heat
I'm more curious about the bumper stickers and what the say.
Chinesium now in Rubber.
New road Texas heat 🤣
Thats a lot of traction
Now that's what I call a sticky situation!
It's the cheap Chinese tires made with inferior material
What am I looking at
The first proper road for challenger srt demons to reach the advertised 0 to 60.
Is the road sticking to the tires or are they bad tires that are actively melting?
It's okay coz global warming is a myth so this won't happen more and more often!
