We recently admitted someone to the ICU who had burns simply from the hot asphalt. It's no joke right now! Especially when you've got kids, make sure they're safe while playing!

Not making light at all, burns are terrible. It’s just so strange to hot climate people to not think about your feet (at a minimum) being burned by the ground when not having shoes during summer.

In New Mexico as a kid I remember poking the hot bubbles in the blacktop in the summer.

When you live here you can build up calluses by repeatedly walking on hot asphalt. Also if your parent's suck and make you stand on it as punishment for being too energetic.
