It didn't require the afternoon before sunset to be hot? 
I'll through out some possible daily hi/lo combos to see what you think:
84/70 F (29/21 C)
82/75 F (28/24 C)
80/72 F (27/22 C)
78/73 F (26/23 C)
77/75 F (25/24 C)
This is purely fictional,
so you wouldn't have need to have stagnant wind and stiffling humidity that typically accompany those hi/lo patterns.
You can specify humidity and wind patterns that would make such forecasts agreeable to you.
I've seen some forecasts like this in Toronto and when they come with windy conditions, I don't usually see grumpy faces.
I hardly ever meet people unhappy because it's just warm,
so perhaps there might be a lot of "heat haters" here that might not mind this.  |

80/72 F looks nice, provided that humidity is low and there's a light breeze.

An ever present breeze would make all of them comfortable, with low humidity.

Yea, I agree 80/72 looks like decent, provided the dew points aren't 72°F.
But you could have low temperatures colder that and still have warm sunset temperatures. At least for us, the low temperature is only for a few hours right around sunrise and sunset is usually much warmer than the low.

For me, warmth in the dark ends at about 75 F/24 C, so that's why I picked that hi/lo range.
Usually temperatures at, or just after sunset match the daily mean; my suspicion, through personal observation.
In Toronto summer,
it is probably a heatwave causing warmth after dark, but not always.
But they are somewhat rare and I learned to savour those occasions. |

If they were accompanied by low humidity, and some wind then they'd be comfy. Otherwise they still seem to be uncomfortable.

How low is low enough humidity?
I would consider a dewpoint of 65 F/18 C or lower to be on the lower end of typical for that temperature range.

65°F is fine for that temperature range. Not my ideal, but ok.

I think I'd like 82/75 best... I love climates with low diurnal ranges... since you know night time won't cool off that much and you can go out and enjoy late evening without worry of getting cold  |
