130 degrees Fahrenheit = 54.4 degrees Celsius
It’s a lot different though, since you can exit the sauna into air that is substantially colder, you can’t escape the desert heat.

Yeah, I found some cool bricks and wondered if brick collecting was a thing.
Ones made by prisoners. One with a nice glaze etc.
Some people who live in 50C temperatures do not have access to AC or a reliable water source.

Normally in a sauna it's not constantly so humid that sweating wouldn't be able to keep your body temperature normal (as long as you stay hydrated). Throwing water on the stove raises the humidity just momentarily and makes you sweat at full capacity, but normally you would wait for some minutes before throwing more water.
If air is humid enough, sweating can't cool the body anymore because sweat won't evaporate, so already 35C is lethal in 100% humidity.

I guess they can. Seems bonkers though.
It quickly gets uncomfortable when they pour water on hot stones in the sauna. Humidity really makes all the difference.
But then I stepped back into the air conditioning.
The record high for the city is 117 degrees Fahrenheit (47.22C) at McCarran International Airport, most recent previous to today was in June 2017, according to the National Weather Service.
The city has recorded that high temperature five times, including today.
On the other hand an object in sunlight will have temperature that has very complex relationship with a lot of parameters including shape of the object or windspeed.
Further, the object will not come into equilibrium and will show a gradient of temperature meaning the readout will depend on where you measure.
I suppose the air (the wind) tends to be colder than objects in the sun, since most sunshine pass straight through the air.
A way to investigate this, is to step barefoot on flat black stones, in the summer sunshine
* under a tent, i.e. in the shadow and sheltered from direct wind: commonly used and correspond to the temperature of the air;
* wet bulb: more recently under attention, correspond to the effect of cooling by evaporation similar to what a healthy human body does. Wet-bulb often gives much lower number in a dry heat and is more significant for human survival. I’ve read that 32ºC or 88ºF are likely were prolonged exposure lead to adverse health but don’t quote me on that.
The third one is radiative equilibrium. You could achieve that in a solar furnace, the object won't get hotter than the black body temperature of sunlight, which is ~5800K.
Also measuring air temperature is easier and more practical as it is just enough to measure temperature of an object that comes into equilibrium with air.
