Etchhhh. Thicker oil aggravates cooling, not helps. My current cars all run 
on 10W30, usually either Castrol or Vavoline though trying a Walmart 
Synthetic Blend 10W30 in one right now ($7.96 for five quarts). If I had 
trouble in hot weather, I would try a straight 30 racing oil before 
anything with such a range of weights. If overheating or losing oil 
pressure on that I would want to find out why.

Am seeing indications that people in Really Hot Climates are being 
successful in staying cool so know it can be done.
