168 degrees on the natural wooden steps 173 on the stained deck, its crossable but standing in one spot that's a burn. 153 on the white fiberglass storage box, I jumped up on that thinking it would be an oasis because it is white and cooler but I guess because it smooth or retains heat better or both that it burned just as bad, the deck at 153 doesn't hurt. The street is no problem for me, next post I will be back with a temperature reading just for science.
