Yup, the question is clear! Go out there and take a snap shot of your onboard air temperatures! SHOW US!

It's only May here, and things are not gonna get any cooler here onwards!! Will be back in a month with more shocking figures!!!

Check this out!

Are your roads in Bahrain also like these ones in Dubai? Looks like the heat is making them crazy.

What oil do Lexus recommend for your GS out there? I've seen that temp over in CA maybe for 3 days a year in the heart of summer. I've been in Dubai many times and it's brutal in summer. If I recall, you don't want a car with a sunroof / moonroof because you generally can't use it.

100°, actually. It was 94° for yesterday, but the other is the annual high record temp.

Go to annual hyah!

And just wait a couple of weeks...I'm sure my dash will be reading 120+° when I first get inside. I think the highest I've read on there is about 122°, but that's in mid/late July when the temp outside is a balmy 115°.

Default 44C in RYD

How about 44C deg at 6:36PM in Riyadh Saudi in May. This time is sunset time, therefore the sun is almost down. Lucky me :-( I'm afraid to think about temps in June, July and August. Above 50C deg easily.

Contrary to popular belief about Canada, it's going to be around 85F here in Toronto on Tuesday, or 95F or so with humidex. That's not even the hottest it gets here during the summer.

We can't compete with the middle east though. That is just insane.
