But, I guess we have a nicer range of seasons than you do in TX.
Parts of Texas can be as brutally hot as Southwest Florida.

By the way, we were breaking heat records here, but so was Florida. It didn't suddenly get hotter here than there.

I think for this area we are still a couple of days short of the record for 90+ degree days. I think the record is 71 or 72 days and I think we are at about 68-69, I'll have to check that though. 2010 was the hottest summer season on record for the area and this year is the second hottest, though I think 2010 had a few days above 100. I'll check that as well.

It's all relative. It's still feels cooler than all of South Florida and much of Texas. The record for Tennessee has nothing to do with that.
