The Ref Stop

Junior/Youth match called off after pitch was fit

Down to competition rules, not all will be the same. It can also sometimes come down to more than the pitch, for example when there is a severe weather warning leagues often allow clubs to self-postpone games without needing a referee or the ground authority saying it wasn't playable.
a bit different up in Scotland, I think. Usually it is the referee (after they've inspected the pitch) that decides - if it is a local council park then it can be them that will call it off on safety grounds. But mostly it is down to the referee.
 
The Ref Stop
In U.S. they set limits for tempetures 20-108 degrees F. I assume y'all have something similar. I think that the pitch is what matters. Otherwise the league would call it off. Tell the county FA bout the incident. I'm sure they'll do something bout it.
