    We have long stretches of 90/32+ and high humidity in the Summer and long stretches of <30/-1 in Winter. And our Spring and Autumn are both notoriously ephemeral, so those rules only apply for a few days to a week most years.

      90+ is cute. ;) I once lived in an apartment without AC because a roommate and I were trying to get out on our own. I went up there early to start working during the summer, and the city set its record for longest period where it never (even at night) got below 90. I was working for some rich girls with horses, so the days freaking sucked, and the only relief I got was the short showers. I think we usually hit 90 during the day by february. I’ve moved away because screw all that. I can’t imagine what it’s like now as the average temperatures keep climbing.

          Without being specific (some family is still there and it’s small enough I’m identifiable by this account), it’s near the tropic of cancer, and a pretty decent sized body of water.
