[quote=Anonymous]I visited Phoenix and Sedona (and Grand Canyon) several years ago in the middle of June with my then-4th grader. We had a great trip but I said never again. The Phoenix heat is brutal and relentless. It doesn’t even cool down much when the sun goes down (maybe 10 degrees cooler), it was always hot there with no relief. When leaving, we had to quickly board so we could take off, as they were canceling flights that sat on the hot tarmac for too long. It was ~120 degrees.

Thankfully we just did 1 night in Phoenix and spent the rest in Sedona, which was 20 degrees cooler than PHX. With that said, daytime temps in Sedona were still 100 degrees. The GC was probably 20 degrees cooler than that. Sedona heat felt much more pleasant than the PHX heat. PHX seemed to be more heavy and slightly humid heat. Sedona felt fine at night and in the shade.

After that trip I decided I would never visit PHX ever again after March or before October. It’s too hot too really enjoy everything it has to offer.[/quote]
