I dont know what the heat index is, what i do know is that if you hang out in the sun too long you come out lookin like bacon.
I have an infrared thermometer, I pointed it the paint on my car yesterday and it said 187 deg!!!

I think the heat index here is actually lower than the actual temp.
Dan, when it's 115, with a humidity of 8%, you can go in the shade and it feels cool. LOL

Apparently the heat baked your brain. It hasn't topped 120 in Phoenix in about 5 years.

Dan,
I was in Phoenix a few weeks ago when you started this thread, and yes, it was freakin' hot.
Agree with Pit Viper, though. Standing in the shade makes a huge difference.
Got back to FL and 85 felt really comfortable!
