If you are looking for the record highest temp you may find it at www.weatherunderground.com. but in general the temps are 105-110 for a week or so but generally only in the 90-100 range for Jun-Aug and in the evenings that cools down to the 65-75 range--It is a very dry heat and so can be relieved with an evaporative cooler or a wet t-shirt 8-)

True, the temps can be as hot as 110, but bear in mind, that is air temp, it can actually be hotter on the ground. Silly as it sounds, as the heat radiates off the desert and the sidewalks and streets, the temp can actually be more like 115-120. I lived in El Paso for a year (about 1 hour further south) and when the weather would say it was 100, my little key chain thermometer would sometimes read 5-10 degrees higher at desert level. Nonetheless, a wet t-shirt, lots of water and an evaporative cooler will solve all our problems!

The record highest temperature was 110°F on July 28th 1994. Generally the average highs are between 90 and 95°F.
