We had a freak day here in Oregon where it bounced up to 113 -- with a couple of days at 104 before and after.

I noticed the leaves that had been unfurling on the 113 day got badly scorched -- but otherwise I didn't see any ill-effects. I've got three Hardy Bananas and a first-year supposedly-a-blue-java-but-we'll-see. That last one was shaded from the afternoon sun and sailed right through it.
