That's true, but also -- an object sitting outside in the sun is going to exceed, or greatly exceed depending on the materials, the ambient temperature.

When the ambient temperature is 123°F (e.g. yesterday) where are you supposed to out it? Does the terminal work indoors? Even on cooler days in the low 100s your home's roof is going to be significantly warmer than 120f
