Not to derail this thread too much but I agree 100%.
Was in Phoenix (never been until then) in July '23 for son's baseball tournie. Concrete stadium heated up by 10am like a tandoori oven. Just radiated heat from below your feet. Many parents had to get back into their cars to turn the AC on. We were pouring water all over ourselves... looks less ridiculous than passing out.
Close second for killer heat would be Atlanta. Also July bball tournie. We had kids passing out in the dugout... kids from the south.
And I lived in south FL for 4 years so I understand heat index.
