"It's so hot today" or "it's too hot today."
I'm sure I could probably use something like:
Kyou wa atsui desu.
but I would like to know how to emphasize the "hot" part.
Arigato gozaimasu!

"totemo" is "very".
"amari ni mo" is "extremely" or "too".
But you'd probably sound more natural if you just said "nante atsui", "sugoi atsui" or "yabai atsui". (Good for informal situations.)
You can also suffix the adjectival base with the verb "sugiru" to indicate "too".
So "atsui" (hot) becomes "atsusugiru" (to be too hot). But I'm not sure that this would be used for weather. Perhaps only for room temperature.
