A small community in the Arizona desert has broken a record for the highest March temperature ever recorded in the US, as the south-west bakes in a blistering late-winter heatwave.
The astonishing temperature was recorded just outside Martinez Lake, Arizona, which reached 110F (43.3C) on Thursday, according to the National Weather Service (NWS).
The community is about 145 miles (233km) west of Phoenix and sits on the Arizona-California border, in the Yuma desert.
The previous record of 108F (42.2C) had been set in Rio Grande City, Texas, in 1954 and was tied on Wednesday by the tiny desert community of North Shore, California.
I simply use metric system, like civilised people.
It appears the users are in an imperial state of mind this weekend
It looks like they are backwards and have been for a while.
No need to be arrogant.
Factual.
No. Arrogant is the appropeiate word to use.
No, definitely factual.
Facts require proof and you haven’t provided any.
There you go:
Good ragebait
I am just trying to stay factual.
Yeah but it’s called Masking. You adapt to fit the situation. In this case, since we’re talking about a town in the US, it makes no sense to use celcius. When in Rome.
As someone with Autism, this is a skill you need to learn. Otherwise people just think you’re an asshole.
I am not going to measure weight in coconuts or area in football fields just because some backwards morons think this is a good idea.
And this is why you don’t get invited to parties.
I do, thank you. Just not with morons.
