Originally Posted By Lisann22 I was THERE! Seriously, I will never forget that few days in Chicago. No one home in Cali could comprehend nor could I explain negative 85 degrees wind chill!

My hottest was a softball tournament in Mesa, AZ, it was 120 degrees, 132 degrees on the infield dirt. I could hear my heart pounding so loud in my head standing at shortstop that I didn't hear my 2nd baseman tell me how many outs. LOL Mercifully, they finally called the tournament. I was never so happy being we were on our 5 game in the losers bracket after losing our first game 1-0 after 18 innings.

Originally Posted By Ursula I want to say 120 or 118 during a trip to the desert. The coldest is probably something like 42. I don't do cold.
Originally Posted By Autopia Deb I've never bothered to remember temps, but I have spent a lot of time in deserts in my life and been to Phoenix in July/August so I'm going to guess somewhere around 120, but 120 in a desert if water and shade is available isn't nearly as miserable as over 90 in Florida with the humidity. I've been in the snow before, but the coldest memory was RV camping in the desert (seriously a LOT of time over the years) and it got down to 18 degrees, our water froze and we had to wait until it warmed up before we could use the sinks. I had bronchitis that weekend and shouldn't have been there, but we were celebrating my parents' 40th anniversary, had to be there.
Originally Posted By 999HAUNTS This probably doesn't count cause I don't do cold much either, but the coldest weather I've been in is at the minus 5 bar in Vegas. It was frickin cold in there, sitting on ice and all. The hottest is when I left Los Angeles on a flight to Mexico for a trip I won. When I left LAX it was 70ish degrees. When I arrived at the Mexican tarmac and walked off the plane it felt like I walked right into a brick wall - it was 112 degrees and I thought I was going to die.
Originally Posted By Ursula Oh, I forgot about that Minus 5 Bar. So that's mine, too. I saw it snow once. Does that mean by default that it was less than 42, I wouldn't know these things. And it is 80 degrees outside now where I am.
Originally Posted By Autopia Deb If you sit at my desk pretending to be me while I get paid for it I will gladly trade for a few days. It's been sunny and in the 70s and 80s since the weekend here.
Originally Posted By melekalikimaka I have no idea quite how cold it was but it was Fairbanks in January. And I left my (new) coat in the Sea/Tac airport before my trip. I think it was in the -80's with windchill. Hottest was July 2009; it was 112 degrees in Redmond, WA. We start getting pretty warm when it's in the 70's to 80's. Also, it doesn't really get warm until July so we were NOT ready for such heat and a lot of us don't have air conditioning because we'd only use it a few days a year. My friend's pug died from the heat; you just couldn't get away from it. It was pretty awful. (I was really devoted to fitness last year and I still did my hour plus walk. I did it in the middle of the night, however. LOL)
