In this case it wasn't super hot (about 80F), but the sun had been strong all day, so the pavement had plenty of time to heat up by the time I got there around 2PM. There were lines of it crisscrossing all over the place so I'm sure I was hitting some of it parallel to my direction of travel. It also looked fairly fresh and not sanded. I've gone over more weathered and hardened sealer and it usually feels a lot less slippery.
