I have walked out of a nice cool Chandler COLO into blistering heat of
110+ on many occasions.  The internal temperature of the car after
opening the door and turning on the key has been as high as 138°F. 

Half the nutjobs squealing about climate change have never even
experienced all four seasons so they have no idea.  A weekend ski trip
to Colorado doesn't count.
