It’s always hot in the summer, but this year nature has taken things up a notch. Cities across the country are breaking their own heat records – in Phoenix, the temperature topped 110 degrees for 19 straight days. And June was the hottest month on record dating back 174 years, according to NOAA. 

So yeah, it’s hot. Not surprisingly, a good amount of our most-reprinted cartoons this week focused on the weather, and when we might get some relief from his latest heat wave.
