Nope.  It's just normally that way here.  It's actually statisicaly a
little ¨colder in the last 50 years here.

Yes, for the average person, if staying out several hours.  Heatstroke is
not a ¨joke.  For today, it's a nice 93F (34C?) and we have the house open
and the AC ¨shut off to just enjoy it.  Thats because we are used to that
so think it is ¨'cool weather'.  Come winter, we will freeze at just above
or below ice-cube ¨making temps for 3 months.

Bottle of water every 30 mins is 40C and above (103F and above).
