It's 2300 local time and the temp is 81F(27C). It should be under 70F(21C) at night, in the summer, here in Rochester, NY (43.1°N 77.6°W).
How bad is it where you are?

Back at home it's dropped to the upper 40's (F) at night and mid 70s in the day - not really warm enough for my tomatoes. We haven't had a hot summer in Santa Cruz for a couple of years.
I've been watching the sun and shadow for a couple of months trying to figure out where to site a bat house I plan to install. I want morning sun and really dark at night (no artificial lights).

This and other conditions brought the heat index up to 101F. We are stuck in High Pollen and Moderate Air Quality (still suffering from some effects of Canadian Smoke).
What I dread is tomorrow when the local weather is expected to reach a full physical 102F.
And we don't see any relief until Thursday....

Which is not to say that we don't hover close to it, because we do... 95 is fairly normal.
I do recall some blistering heatwaves in June up north. In fact I can name 2015, when Mr. Stranger was driving with the trailer and pets to meet me in MD for the case against the squatter. He couldn't stop to rest—the AC was inadequate unless he kept moving. Trump was at Bedminster yesterday? 😏

So far, we're good.

Not extraordinarily cold, but shorts&t-shirt is not really advisable.
Or at least bring a windbreaker.

One of the main problems in the USA is that half the populace is completely out of touch with reality, controlled instead by the propaganda spread by the likes of FOX "News", OAN, and their ilk.
It's not clear to me how to solve this problem. And this scares me, because I'm a cognitive scientist. The problem is the control of information. Right now, the wrong people control what the majority of people believe, and I don't know how to fix that.

What are they going to do? Not watch TV?
Certainly there are no legal means of fixing things.
A bit like with Hitler's death machine. It was perfectly legal. It was the resistance and the allied invasion and liberation of the camps that were illegal.
