I have the impression we've been breaking heat records in recent years.  Just a couple years ago (2021), my area saw the hottest day on record - It got up to (I think) 119 degrees Fahrenheit (about 48 or 49 degrees Celsius) one day.  Temperatures that high are unusual for my area.  We do get some hot weather in the summer, but usually the hottest it gets might be around 107 Fahrenheit (41 Celsius).  Usually it doesn't get quite that hot, but it can be near there, and usually for just a couple weeks or so.
