If someone can tell the difference between 97 and 102, then they are really good. Myself, most places here are so cold, that it feels good to go outside and feel nature. We keep our A/C on 83 and anything less is too cold for us. The only time I minded the heat was during the last two Saturday morning softball games, and they only last an hour so it's no big deal.

I've lived in Florida off and on since 1959, that was the 4th grade for me. Also spent about 8 years in Georgia, that place is even hotter. I did spend 20 years up north and the hottest I remember was every August in Baltimore, we would get at least 15 days near 100. I usually went to the BBQ Festival every August, but one year I stepped out on my deck and said, we're staying home this year. They held it at a parking lot in downtown in Bel Air, so it was even hotter between the asphalt and the BBQ ovens cooking.
