 JM> What was it, 80 degrees?  :)

Actually, it was 92 on Memorial Day, breaking the previous record of 90
for the 25th... and then the next day we got to 90 again, but that day's
record was 92. so didn't break another record... Wednesday and Thursday
last week were in the high 80s... still too hot, couldn't get the house
cooled down until the temps dropped over the weekend into 60s for
highs.... 

 JM> A recently late friend who lived in Erie, PA turned her a/c on as
 JM> soon as it hit 70 degrees, saying it was hot.  I used to joke everyone
 JM> there must be part Eskimo.

That's about comfort level for me... Low 70s, maybe to about 75... No
a/c here anyway, except in my car....

 JM> When I visited the first time in '84 she apologised for "the heat". 
 JM> It was something like 80 degrees.
 JM> We have overnight lows in the 80s at times in the summer.

Our summer lows are more likely in the mid to high 70s, occasionally
lower... which is fine by me....
 
 > then be in the 60s for highs for the weekend.... fine by me... :)

 JM> Those are our overnight lows, if we're lucky.

The only bad thing was that with highs in the 60s the lows were in the
low 50s, high 40s... and we don't really want to be using the furnace
this late into the season... ;0

 JM> It was 95 Monday, then cooled to only 91 Tuesday and yesterday it
 JM> was only in the upper 80s.  Brr.  I may have cleaned and put away those
 JM> winter clothes too soon.
 JM> Joe (who likes it hot).

You can have it... ;)  I never really put away the summer or winter
clothes... they are still where they can be at hand when the temps
change drastically and one need them again... ;)
