It isn't any longer now, that much I can tell you - though we braced the

I envy you. It was 37° C here yesterday.
 

Oooh, a low-temp sauna! ;-)
 
It's varied form 42C to 47C (daytime highs) here this month,
with dew points from -5C to 23C. A "dry heat" it's not, at
this time of year. :-(

They've been predicting 33-35° for us for days, but it's never been
that hot on our balcony -- maybe 31° maximum.

When people start posting about the weather, that's how you know
parents have taken over T.O.

And to add the standard disclaimer, weather != climate change.
