Temperatures in Parked Cars

This Stanford study, published in Pediatrics, was reported in several media outlets. I've excerpted a portion of an article from Medical News Today.

Even on a relatively cool day, the temperature inside a parked car can quickly spike to life-threatening levels if the sun is out, researchers at the Stanford University School of Medicine have found. They hope their findings will put to rest the misconception that a parked car can be a safe place for a child or pet in mild weather.
