How hot is it in the western US? Real hot - seattlepi.com

The heat wave gripping the western U.S. is one of the worst in years, with desert locations in the Southwest seeing temperatures approach 120 degrees. [...] sweltering heat is often a big draw for visitors to Death Valley National Park especially tourists from Europe with hotels already booked solid during the hotter months of July and August. Drivers should keep pets and children out of locked cars, and a person who suffers a fall on a sidewalk or a street could end up in the burn unit. The easiest way to beat the heat in cities such as Phoenix is to flee the desert for higher-elevation mountain cities such as Flagstaff, Sedona and Prescott.
