Edit to add: A person quickly learns to do their outside summer activities in Florida in early morning when the temps are upper 70's or mid-morning when they are mid 80's. Don't wait til afternoon to start your pickleball or tennis game.
Interesting, what part of the upper mid-west hits temperatures that high regularly every year? Obviously, the OP knows what his summers are like now and likes them. He wants a comparison to Florida summer.
