The Truth about Summer in Phoenix AZ

[@cjthompson420]

I’m a Texan and I mean no disrespect but people from Phoenix annoy me about summer. Y’all go online and talk about “it’s 180 here durrrr” yet whine all the time about it. At least us Texans admit summer is AWFUL lol

[@awg7068]

116 degrees today, and it's going to get a lot hotter before the summer ends. When the monsoon starts, and the humidity gets up to 40%+, it's like living in a hot wet sock. That said, it's 3-4 months of tough weather, then it's absolutely better than almost anywhere. Sunblock is your buddy, as well as hats, and lots of water (everywhere you go). This is the Sonoran Desert, you have to keep that in mind.

[@livinginphoenixazinfo]

I’m with you. I’ll take this for ‘bad’ weather over snow & wind. 🙏🏻

Wow! What's even crazier is that your overnight Temps are still triple digits! Inland California can reach 110+ but nighttime falls to 60's-70's. How much is your ac bill? Do you have it on 24/7? 😮💰

[@livinginphoenixazinfo]

@@larryc1616 AC is definitely on all the time. Summer electric bills can be $200-700 depending on how big a house is and how old the AC system is.

[@AZGT350]

There are 2 summers in Phoenix. Pre 4th of July and post 4th of July. Pre 4th has low humidity and not an issue. Evenings cool down into the 80’s. Post 4th when the humidity hits, temps barely drop at night. It can still be 100 at midnight. But, it only lasts 2-3 months. Still better than shoveling snow.

[@livinginphoenixazinfo]

For sure. I'm a weather fan, so I love monsoon season. Its fun to see if it storms & if they will make it into the city. A lot of times the storms reach the edge of the city and break up.

My wife an I currently reside in Illinois and have lived here all our life. We see all four seasons and in my opinion really have 2-3 perfect months and that's spring and autum. Over the past several years weve been home shopping in Colorado, Wyoming, Arizona and Nevada. We arrived in Scottsadale during monsoon season around a few years ago and it was 116F. Illinois can see near 100F in the summer but what's worse is the added humidty at that temp we get. Like others I've been told Arizona is not humid so 100F feels cooler but I can now say 116F feels miserable humid or not. It was so hot we were walking the dogs to the car from the hotel and while my wife was rearanging the car one dog began lifting it's paw and yipping. I put my hand to the concerte and it felt like a skillet.

[@user-or5wg9ps1y]

How much is the average utility bill during summer months?( 2000 sq foot home). Sounds like it would be insanely expensive

[@livinginphoenixazinfo]

it's hard to say, there are a lot of variables. Most homes of that size should be $300-400 in summer months. There are different types of homes here, older homes have concrete block walls, most homes since the 90s are wood framed with stucco. Windows & insulation are key components in keeping a home cool & costs down, so the older they get the more inefficient a home gets. The electric company offers an 'equalizer payment' option where they take the average of the past year and you pay that monthly, which spreads out the cost and avoids any crazy high bills.

[@bigmike9433]

It's no different than heat bills in most of the U.S.

There is also the issue of people leaving their dogs in the car to make a "quick stop" in a store during the summertime. For some odd reason, there are people out there who do this and don't think of how an extremely hot car can kill their pet, even if it is for a brief stop.

As recently as the 1970s, Phoenix was no less comfortable in summer than most any U.S. city. My hometown of Louisville was a sweatbox in summer, due to the Ohio River Valley humidity and car emissions being trapped in by nearby hills. It was usually in the 90s here, and occasionally over 100. But 92 in a high humidity place was worse than 102 in Phoenix. All that changed because of two things: 1) Phoenix was overbuilt, quadrupling in population since 1970. That dust and humidity of July and August (largely a consequence of constant construction) has been toxic to many people. 2) Climate change makes Louisville no longer a place with such distinct seasons. The summer humidity is irregular and overall much lower, and summer temperatures are not as consistently high. We've sometimes had furnaces on in July here, something unimaginable 25 years ago.

[@livinginphoenixazinfo]

I've heard stories of how it used to cool off at night. All the concrete isn't helping. Scientists say the 'heat island' isn't a thing but I have seen so many monsoon storms come from the north, reach the edge of the city and just disappear. That has to have some effect, right?

Imagine walking out your house at 4 a.m. and it's still 98 degrees and it hits you in the face like an oven in the dark!! My point is is I've been to Florida in July and August and 95° and humid isn't that bad as long as you don't have to work in it. If you do however that humid weather is miserable but this summer we had hundreds of people in the emergency room with second and even some third-degree burns on their feet because they decided to walk across the street barefoot!!

I must be the only one that likes it when the humidity comes through

[@livinginphoenixazinfo]

Ha, I'm with you, I do like monsoon season. A couple days of humidity is a nice change.

I can't stand the winters here. Too cold I'm in the far east valley, right in front of the Superstition mountains. I love the summers. I'll take that 110 everyday. You get used to it.

[@livinginphoenixazinfo]

At least you have those nice views of the Superstitions...🤷🏻‍♂️

[@motorcitywestauto4674]

@@livinginphoenixazinfo it's literally in my front yard. I'm that close. Half mile walk to the entrance of the national park at the end of Broadway Ave. Love the view. I go on my garage roof and have a 360 view of all the mountains. At least it's finally warming up.

[@livinginphoenixazinfo]

wow. I love the views here. I'm in Glendale in the NW Valley. We're heading to Lost Dutchman State Park on Monday for the day, any suggestions on fun hikes or things to see near you? I haven't spent much time out that way doing fun stuff.

I treated my 10 years in Phoenix like prison sentence! 1960-1969! Left the day after high school graduation…and never went back
