We've actually had a cooler than normal summer so far.

Summer
Not Summer

And at a little after 9pm, it's 87°, Heat Index of 97°, and Relative Humidity at 68%.
Our power also went out early this morning, though I didn't wake up for several hours as I keep the a/c cold at night (mostly to avoid having to run the a/c for 24 hrs a day just to "keep up" with a bearable temp...) Thankfully, the power came back on around 11 am
