On Sunday, Las Vegas broke the all-time record high temperatures. Channel 13's Bryan Horwatch talked to several locals about how they're beating the heat.
I'm 71 and have been going to Vegas in July since college. My parents, who just died, lived there for their final 20 years. I've seen 120 degrees (and higher) there many times, especially in the 1980's. The world's highest temperature of 134.1 degrees F was set in furnace Creek (Death Valley) on July 10th, 1913.
I lived in Vegas in 1992-93. I worked for the power company (NV Power at that time) At lunchtime it was 126 with strong winds. The heat was stunning. It took my breath away. I'll never forget it.
@@twincherry4958 Nah...I believe him. I've had the official temperature announced (always recorded at the airport) only to discover my backyard recorded a much higher temperature...much! This discrepancy happens every summer. So...depends where you're working. I worked outside loading baggage on a minibus when I first came to LV decades ago. Sometimes the heat radiating off the asphalt literally took my breath away. I couldn't breathe for a moment. So hot. My thermometer out front of my house stands on cement and routinely registers now in the 120+° range while getting full sun all morning until early afternoon.
@@twincherry4958I don’t doubt it. The temp is taken from satellite averages that pass over every 20 minutes. They either need a geostationary satellite or to average both ground and satellites. If we did that 120ish seems likely.
Disagree wholeheartedly. Grew up in the south. Went out to the desert southwest at like 117°, it was horrible, it hurt to be outside. Gimme 95° with a 70° dew point any day over that.
Gambles with what? You think an economy can survive prolonged +100 Fahrenheit temperatures? The next video up is "How extreme heat affects Las Vegas infrastructure..."
It is deceptive to EVER state that it is an "all time record high temperature", simply because we don't have the records to verify what temperatures have been reached throughout ALL time. It is true to state that it is ONLY the highest temperature we have recorded in "all" of the "time" we've been KEEPING a record and NOT an "all time" record.
So tell me where this mythical weather station is, you can’t because it doesn’t exist..weather stations are standardized to eliminate the crap that your conspiracy brain dreams up.. Take 5 minutes to understand what goes into weather and temperature tracking and you may realize how stupid your reasoning is..
Which day was that? I love it when the experts chime in. So many amazing people out there. We didn't know about them until CZcams created a forum for them to share their superior knowledge with all.
Total B.S. Lived in Vegas for a decade and 120+ happens every three years or so. Once it got to 124 and they were threatening to shut down the airport. Phoenix shut down at 127. It may a record for the year but it's absolutely not an "all time" record.
Get ready, they will probably do a hoax on electric grid as man made weather machine is turned up higher hoping to get rid of population. Now this is concerning...
That's really awesome, too bad the millions of Californians that invaded Arizona in the last two years would have enjoyed it as much as you and stayed there.

It was123 degrees on East Carey around 4 years ago, as reported on the Weather Underground channel.🥵 I was born and raised in Dallas, Texas, and well recall the epic heat wave of 1980 in which the temperature exceeded 100 degrees 69 days that summer, with a string of 42 days, (June 23 through August 3), when it exceeded 100 degrees, the hottest days being three consecutive 113 degree days, June 26, 27 and 28. During the 120 degree here July 7, the humidity was only 2%, the lowest that I have ever noticed. But in Dallas during the 1980 heat wave the humidity was MUCH HIGHER, so the heat index would have made it feel like it was at least in the mid 120's.♨️🥵♨️ I moved to Las Vegas in the summer of 1995.

TEXAS HEAT WAVE OF 1980!", I often tell locals that "I MOVED TO LAS VEGAS TO COOL OFF!"😁🤠
I'm a tour guide for Asian visitors. For the past 17 years my groups have been wearing masks. When I did ask why wear a mask they said " We respect America, and don't want them to get sick". They wear a mask out of respect for others. Something many Americans don't understand.
First, it's not a record unless you look at the lying Apple weather app, second stop measuring in a concrete jungle. You might as well be taking the temperature from the top of a solar panel.
Lived here for 30 years. No we never had a 115 to 120 temperatures for a straight week. This is not talking about just one day FYI. It’s crucial to pay attention to numbers
Remember the animals at this time. Leave out water bowls for animals in different locations. Put up shade. Hose them down. Heat stress kills, humans and animals.

Drove through Las Vegas late summer in the 90's, public thermometer read 125, it was so hot my ac couldn't cool the air. Talking to a local as I filled up with gas, local told me that it was normal for Vegas.

I parked my big rig out in Needles. It was 123. So hot, that standing out in it for more than a few mintues was torture. But that wasn't enough, next day I came through Vegas, 120, stuck my hand out the window while driving through downtown on I-15, and it felt like my hand was frying.
Hi from Phoenix, yeah you live in the desert just like we do so you’re not really breaking any records to be honest, and the concrete doesn’t help, but it is what it is
Glad to hear my Phoenix isn't the hottest for once. Take our crown please. But, like that guy said, I'll take dry triple digits any day over humid East Coast summers.

They took away the grass, trees, bushes and other plants that dissipate the heat at night, and SHOCKER! It might get hotter now! It also stays hotter at night because there is nothing to dissipate the heat, only concrete, asphalt, dirt and rocks. I have been here since 1977. It has definitely been over 120 before now.
Let me clarify something for everyone. When you use an AC unit it forces the hot air out and replaces it with cold air, the hot air is expelled outside. If everyone is doing that there must be a lot of hot air outside more than what would normally be there. So it gets hotter and we cool off and it keeps getting hotter. Is there anyone else that sees the irony in that?
@@TheTexasDuke 🤣 there’s no temperature in Dallas that makes the overrated Heat Index feel close to the heat of Las Vegas, and I live in Austin. Humidity has a different effect on different people. Arid Heat is worse than Humid Heat
Seeing stories like this would have, in the past, worried me about the future of our planet, you know, getting too hot to live comfortably due to Climate Change, but then I remember the words and actions of that GOP senator, James Inhofe who famously disproved that whole stupid concept by bringing an actual SNOWBALL into the halls of Congress, in February 2015.

Dry heat is not that bad tho.. humidity at 100 equals 120 heat index which I endure everyday in Dallas Tx
BUT in the hot desert places like phoenix and palm springs it can be 115 with a sky filled with large dark monsoon clouds and fairly high humidity!
@TheTexasDuke I feel your pain, even with ac it's still very uncomfortable with humidity especially at night.
@@TheTexasDuke 🤣 there’s no temperature in Dallas that makes the overrated Heat Index feel close to the heat of Las Vegas, and I live in Austin. Humidity has a different effect on different people. Arid Heat is worse than Humid Heat
I was there when it was 117. It delayed my plane flight out for a few hours till it cooled a few degrees.
I was at hoover dam in 2006 in was 116° not sure if I would actually feel the difference
Y’all should move to Detroit, they got plenty of water
Sounds like a nice day to ride my bike thru death valley.
Ouch
129 there
So it can live up to its name.
I got what you did there.
those poor guys. What were they thinking?
Another summer, same ol bs!!!
Death Valley saying hello
0:41 A DUQUE??? WHERE?? I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF SOMEONE ELSE WITH THAT LAST NAME
Yes, but it's a DRY heat.
How's it breathing through an obedience mask in 120 degrees?
Seeing stories like this would have, in the past, worried me about the future of our planet, you know, getting too hot to live comfortably due to Climate Change, but then I remember
the words and actions of that GOP senator, James Inhofe who famously disproved that whole stupid concept by bringing an actual SNOWBALL into the halls of Congress,
in February 2015. Thank god for brilliant minds like his!!
