Also, low to mid-90s is NOT very, very hot for here! You are in for a rude awakening if you think that's hot. That's just normal summer temps here. The week+ we had in 2012 over the 4th of July where about 9 out of 10 days it was over 100 was very, very hot.
LOL I guess in the winter, we might be having a very different conversation. Hahaha This past January, SE MI had MINUS 38 degree wind chills. Not exaggerating. It was unbelievable and the actual cold temps nearly broke records. I guess the tradeoff for the hotter summers in the triangle will be a milder winter. But, something for everyone! Some folks enjoy steamy summers and some like the "brisk" winters up north. I've been in Florida in the summer and it sounds a lot like the triangle summers.
72 is too cold for me. I love the heat. Give me 85 any day of the week. 90s don't really bother me. I'm sitting inside my air-conditioned house wearing a sweatshirt right now because I'm chilly with the thermostat set at 78. Getting ready to go walk the dog and I'll take the sweatshirt off for that, but probably put it back on when I come back inside.
No freaking way in heck I would ever live in Michigan or any place up that way.
So you can see this is nothing very unusual. I was born and raised in NC and have lived in NC almost all my life. I would be much more surprised to have a May that didn't reach the 90s than to have a May with high 90s.
I don't think it's unusual either. Business as usual it seems to me. It feels great with a nice breeze sitting on the screen porch.

LOL I'd eager to get out of this cold weather myself! I much prefer the warmer, hotter weather, even 90's.

We wound up getting a house without a screen room but I have a rocking chair porch facing the sunrise and a deck facing the sunset, so I'm covered no matter the temp.

+1 and good to know I am not as weird as I thought I might be. About temperatures anyway...
