I live in Dubai where temperatures easily reach 50 degrees Celsius. I've never seen anything melt like that

Zena, Dubai is at sea level, and Phoenix Arizona is 1,086 ft (331 m) higher, which means it has a less normal dense atmosphere. The denser the atmosphere, the more light is reflected back into space. In Phoenix morning and afternoon light can be more easily 'refracted', or concentrated by the sun's rays. This is less a problem at sea level where the atmosphere is denser. You can accomplish the same thing by using an automobile's glass, or a magnifying glass.

Phoenix is a very big city, lots of concrete and asphalt that soaks up the heat. As a southern neighbor of Phoenix, we are usually a little cooler in temps, but still have had our share of very hot days. We learn to adjust to the heat by staying indoors and running our air conditioners when we absolutely have to. I can handle the heat up to 100 degrees, anything over 100 feels like an oven when you first open the door.

And never leave lipstick or anything you value in your car because it will melt or otherwise be destroyed.
