Heat wave

The summer heat has arrived. Today it will reach 115F (46C) and the garage is reading 100F (38C) right now. Early this morning we lost power for a brief moment. All the devices that we rely on went out for a brief moment. And so did the Arduino WIFI irrigation controller. When sunrise came, instead of the log reading irrigator on/irrigator off, the controller signalled an error.

I have tried to reset the controller without success. The Arduino board is hot to the touch. I am afraid that the power outage and the high temperature may have done the poor Arduino in.

Not sure what to do.
