Think about it...no matter how hot it gets the cooling system will control the engine temp...thus use the same oil as the rest of us (as in post 2). Now if you lived in sub zero temps that would be different.

Since you have no cold temperatures, you only need to worry about the last number in the oil viscosity ratings, the number after the W. Any oil with a 40 there will be fine. Only the folks with winter cold need worry about the number before the W. You can still concern yourself about regular or synthetic, and what brand to use.
