    I just arrived in Phoenix yesterday and I gotta say it's not as hot as I thought it would be. the highest I saw yesterday was 108 and it just felt like another day back home. Don't get me wrong, 108 is hella hot no matter where you're from, but it's really no that bad. It's quite comfortable. Just thought I'd share that.
