Thanks to this comment, I knew this would be an F for me before I even looked at the climate data. Although I must admit, I expected even higher daytime highs. But still, definitely an F from me.

Does Florida actually get blackflies? I thought it was just mosquitos down there.
I don't think so, but I'm not 100% sure.

I've had more experience with bugs in cold places, too, but I haven't been in the tropics or subtropics in summer.

Isn't the state bird of Alaska the mosquito?

Speaking of bugs, I opened one of my windows that has no screen thinking all the bugs would gone from all the frosts but I got a big fly in my room. Either flies are hardier than I thought or they hatch super fast.

I've spent time in Florida and Mississippi ( and in the seriously swampy parts, too - we had gators! ) in June, July, and August, and while yes, there were bugs, it was much less bad than the beautiful creekside ( ) location I stayed at one summer in Montana.

Did you spend a lot of time in the everglades, or swampy areas?

Yes! I spent a few days in a house that was bordering the everaglades, on the west side of the Ft. Lauderdale suburbs, and a few weeks in a place in the country near Diamondhead, Mississippi.

I don't know if you've been to southern Mississippi, but in that inland stretch of thirty to forty kilometers back from the Gulf, it's all swamp and woods. The farming areas don't start until aways inland.
