You may want to think twice before you leave your valuable electronics in your car on a hot day. If you take your portable devices in the car with you, keep in mind that your car will get MUCH hotter than the outside temperature when you park it on a hot sunny day. iPhones and iPADs have operating temperature ranges of 32-95 degrees F, and a safe storage range of only up to 113 degrees F.
