Training in HOT weather

I live in the Phoenix area and the only time my schedule allows me to train/ride during the week is after work (~5PM) when we are getting out highest temps of the day. It is not uncommon for it to be 106-112 degrees. Are there any advantages or disadvantages of doing training rides at these temps other than dehydration and hot water in the bottles after 20 min?
Thanks
Mel
