Around here, every summer will have at least one day over 40 C - and
several days around that is no cause for surprise. The limit is about
42 C. Not much humidity though; this is the driest state in the driest
continent other than Antarctica.
I don't like heat much myself. But we get enough pleasant days as
well.
