130F
#9
When I was doing work at PSR during multiple summers (yes, apparently, I AM brain damaged), the temps ranged from 115-122. Usually dry, but June can be monsoon season. One June, I believe 2014, it was around 60% humidity. I worked from sunup until 10:30am, then hid inside until 6:30pm, and worked outside another 3 hours. Very unpleasant. I would drink around 3 gallons of water a day, and a beer or two at night, and still was running slightly dehydrated.

No pool, but I kept a hand towel soaked around my neck. That helped, as did extra large long sleeve cotton white shirts and a large hat.
