It's funny though because we come close to our record high quote often, like in 2008 we reached 31.1C and that was in a very wet summer. Last year we reached 31C again. July 2006, 32C was broken, in June 2001, 32c.. you get the picture
Yeah.. We usually hit high 20s every year.. but rarely do we ever go over 30.. According to Environment Canada.. we average 0.20 days a year over 30.. so once every 5 years on average.

Anywhere from 50-100 is great. I could settle for less if the nights are warm in summer though.

5 to 10 at the most. I haven't felt an outside temperature warmer than 77F since August 2009.

That run will come to an end very soon though. Maybe even in the next few days.

That's very cool even by our standards.

We had 68 in 2011, but jumps to 99 if you lower the threshold to 87F +. I'd prefer 0.

Your July is 1-2C cooler than ours, yet we get 5-7 days of 30C+ per year. We usually get about 2 days per year in the 90s/32C+.

I don't have air conditioning, so ideally 1 or 2 "ceremonial" 90+ degree days, followed by a rapid cool-down (feels sooo good).

One of the things I like about equatorial climates is their lower record highs compared to mid-latitude climates. There are places that get 90F as the average daily high in almost all months yet have never seen 100F.

Honestly I'm a warmth lover, but not a heat-lover. If I never see 90F ever again I wouldn't be sad. The 80sF give me enough heat and are great for swimming; the 70sF are great doing-everything weather. Patches in the '60s are fine. I could live my whole life between 59F and 89F and be happy.
