The AVMA has an article on this topic at https://www.avma.org/public/PetCare/Pages/pets-in-vehicles.aspx. It includes a chart that shows "Estimated Vehicle Interior Air Temperature v. Elapsed Time." They also have some suggestions for cold weather safety at https://www.avma.org/public/PetCare/Pages/Cold-weather-pet-safety.aspx.
