11 Hottest Cities in America

2. Las Vegas, Nevada

Las Vegas is an oasis in the middle of the Mojave desert that has long been a hot destination for travelers from around the world. Especially if you plan your trip during summer months, be aware that Vegas experiences an average of 70 days of temperatures rising above 99 degrees, with July and August meaning almost certain triple-digit temperatures. Remember that alcoholic and sugary drinks can be dehydrating in an already hot environment, so be sure to take care of your body with necessary hydration.
