Just got a regular email from Will announcing bike frame availability among other things.  "Other things" include his comment that last Tuesday the temps reached 114 degrees!!?  Isn't that a rare temperature for the Bay area in NoCal?

According to local news, temps have been about 15 degrees higher than normal this week in the Sacramento area. Bay Area has been hot too, but usually about 30 degrees cooler than Sacto. That’s why I headed in that direction today to ride—just too hot locally (combined with bad air quality due to wildfires in the area).

Yes, 114 is extremely rare in the East Bay, but I live up in the hills of the North Bay (Napa Valley) and while we were told by media that our high was 112, my weather station under my covered front porch (shade) indicated a high of 91 degrees.  I also did my 30 mile ride with a six mile climb at 12.00 noon, and did not ‘feel’ like I was climbing in extreme heat.  These numbers have been exaggerated all week, but maybe these are urban temps; not rural.

You think "media" have it wrong and "these numbers have been exaggerated all week" ? I don't understand your implication here.

It's been brutal. I've been getting up at 5:00am to get my ride in.

Tuesday it was 117 on my deck in downtown sacramento...literally the hottest day ever recorded (in the past 160 years). It was so hot, our office building shut down its HVAC system and lighting at 4 to conserve energy. I worked from home that day and ended early, biked up along the American river, and floated for a couple hours on the packraft.

Even with my AC cranked at max, my apartment could only maintain 84 deg. Its an old victorian with "character." Oh, and then mosquito fire started later that evening.

We’re getting it in SoCal as well but nothing like that. We were up near 100 but with high humidity for us. I can take the heat but am definitely not used to humid. We have rain now but at least it’s cooler.
