It's not the liquid you worry about - it's the vapor. Gas cans sitting in the sun/heat can 'off-gas' due to thermal expansion. This vapor is highly flammable.
If you believe something to be true, it will be - in it's consequences.

You beat me to it. It was 95 out. A small ember from a cigarette will start a forest fire -- it will certainly ignite the vapors.
