I hated my first couple years here. Then you just accept that Phoenix is "center of the sun" hot during the summer. I also think you do aclimate as mentioned by Wil.
Once you have accepted where you are now living - you will find A/C to be not just a friend, but a saviour. You will realize that if you need to get outside, just hop in your car and head north - within about an hour or so you will find a nice place to pull over and put your top down.
You know you have been here long enough when you can actually find comfort in anything south of 105F. I can be outside, on the golf course, clean the pool/yard up until about 106 - then its mojitos and the swimming pool

Just washed my SUV. Parked it outside for 10 minutes, then brought it back in, wiped the dirt off, put it outside for 10 minutes to rinse and brought it back inside to dry

Looks like the storm has redeveloped over the top of Phoenix. The lightning and rain are once again very intense. Updated radar image:
Made for a lot of happy members. We were forced to cancel our biggest ladies tournament of the year due to it. Lot of happy women there.

I played golf the day it was 122 degrees here. My brother and I were the only two people on the course. Hitting the ball is like hitting a fresh egg. What a feeling. Played in just over 2 hours!
