ST. PAUL, MN (KARE) The death of a 4-year-old boy in hot car Saturday in St. Paul, Minnesota marks a dubious distinction.

"This is the 800th pediatric vehicular heatstroke case that we've documented going back to 1998," Jan Noll said.

Noll, a meteorologist, runs the website noheatstroke.org. He's also extensively studied temperatures in parked car during a variety of weather patterns.

Under sunny skies Saturday in St. Paul, the temperature reached 70 degrees. Based on his research, Noll estimates the temperature in the car where the boy died "would have been probably approaching 120 degrees."
