It'll be good practice - looking on Ceefax at some of the places I'll
be visiting in America over the next couple of months has me a little
worried - LA has temperatures approaching 45°C which is a good 15°C
hotter than anything I've experienced in this country :-/

Are you sure about that figure? That sounds more like the sort of
temperature I'd expect to find in Death Valley, rather than on the
coast.
