Hi mena,
The optimum operating temperature for lead-acid batteries is 25 degrees Celsius (77 f). It is important to be aware of temperature when using and storing lead-acid batteries for every 8 degrees Celsius rise in temperature will cut the battery life in half.

Personally I'd not go over 45 C (~115 f). The hotter they are, the lower the gassing voltage.
