The Day the Asphalt Lost Its Cool
You might think that a place called "Los Angeles" is always bathed in golden sunlight and balmy breezes. Well, think again, sunshine. There are days when the city turns into a giant, overcooked oven. And when that happens, let's just say it's not exactly "California Dreamin'".
So, what is the hottest day ever recorded in LA? Drumroll, please... A sizzling 121 degrees Fahrenheit! Yes, you read that right. The city that gave us Hollywood glamour also gave us a taste of what it feels like to be an extra in a Dante's Inferno remake.

Survival Tips for the LA Heatwave
If you're planning a trip to LA during the summer, here are a few tips to avoid becoming a human popsicle:
- Hydrate or Die Trying: Chug water like it's your job. And no, soda doesn't count.
- Embrace the Shade: Seek refuge under any available shade, be it a palm tree, a billboard, or your neighbor's umbrella.
- Dress for Success (or Failure): Lightweight, loose-fitting clothes are your new best friends. Forget about those skinny jeans.
- Cool Down Your Pad: Invest in a good AC unit or at least a powerful fan. Your future self will thank you.
The Myth of the Cool Coastal Breeze
Don't be fooled by the ocean. Sure, the beach sounds like a refreshing escape, but trust us, the sand can be hotter than Hades. And if you think you'll find relief in the water, prepare to be shocked (not in a good way) by the ocean's temperature.
QuickTip: Look for contrasts — they reveal insights.
