This is essentially my dream summer month, but it occurred at a real location in 2012! What do you think of it?

D. Too hot, humid, and rainy.

A. It is a bit wetter than I'd like, but at least most of the rain came from thunderstorms.

B.
I like some thunderstorms but its way overkill if its every day.
Gimme some thunder n lightning twice a week on the average. Also gimme a couple of clear skies days a week too.
Daytime highs could be a bit cooler (85 F or so) since the warm nights and humidity will make it already feel like low 90s anyway.

Looks like could be in

Solid B territory. I'd like a few cooler days mixed in though (but still warm).

[tommyFL]

Hmm...
Record lows and highs are the same, even the repeated 94F

A-.

I'm fine with about 12 precip days per month during summer, mostly in the form of thunderstorms.

Actually Miami had 26 rain days this past July, amazing. Although it looked like a lot of the storms happened in mid to late morning. I'm somewhat undecided whether 80F lows would be nice, or too much of a good thing.

This is the longest uninterrupted stretch of thunderstorms at Daytona Beach, that's why I chose to feature it.

Agreed

[forgotten username]

too much rain, I'd rather have lower lows and a some days at 37-40 with lower dew points overall.

If you ever use A/C it's cheating.
