Not that anyone wants to see me in a bathing suit – but this is the place to definitely pack one – or perhaps two
The pools look lovely and right now the temperature here is in the 20’s and I am looking forward to that “dry heat” in June!

Having lived in Scottsdale for a few years, I can say that June temperatures can reach the high 90’s and even get into the low 3-digits. Linen and cottons are your best choices for clothing fabric for outside. However, be aware that air conditioning will have some reaching for sweaters and jackets when indoors!

The locals tell us that the monsoon season doesn’t begin until August, so yes, the heat is normally dry in June! And surprisingly, sitting in the shade under the palm fronds is quite comfortable!

But it’s a _dry_ heat…, right?

The site looks and sounds wonderful. But there was no mention of what the weather is like in June in Phoenix. When the Medical Library Association met in Phoenix in May a couple of years ago, the temperatures were in the 100’s every day!! Those outdoor gathering nooks and spaces might not seem so appealing when it is that hot!
