With Tuesday’s low of 94, Phoenix has had nine straight nights of temperatures that didn’t go below 90, breaking another record there.
A digital billboard displays the temperature on Monday, July 17, 2023 in downtown Phoenix.
No other major city – defined as the 25 most populous in the United States – has had any streak of 110-degree days or 90-degree nights longer than Phoenix, said weather historian Christopher Burt of the Weather Company. For Phoenix, it’s not only the brutal daytime highs that are deadly. The lack of a nighttime cooldown can rob people without access to air conditioning of the break from the heat that their bodies need to continue to function properly.
The last time Phoenix didn’t reach 110 F was June 29, when it hit 108 . The record of 18 days above 110 that was tied Monday was first set in 1974, and it appeared destined to be shattered with temperatures forecast above that through the end of the week.
