Well, I live here and I have a disagreement with the weather that some FReepers have mentioned.

It does not get hotter than hell by June.

Most of June is quite agreeable. In fact, last Summer it was so cool through all of May and June, I couldn't get into my outdoor pool. In fact, it was after the 8th of July before the water had warmed enough to not form icecicles on me immediately. (ok, that's a slight exaggeration.)

June is only a little warmer than May and the humidity hasn't settled in yet. That doesn't appear until July, and then it's really bad for the dog days of August.

Watch, now that I've gone out on a limb over this weather thing, it'll be 98 degrees with 92% humidity from Memorial Day onward. I have that kind of luck.

Wow, I respectfully disagree! The last few years have been aberrations - cooler than normal. And I live a bit north (for all intents, always have for my 30+ years) of DC. We're usually broiling from June thru Sept - but again, the last few years have been strangely cool (in the Summer). So much for the global warming crap. Anyway my experience has been hi temps and some of the worst humidity in the nation all Summer, outside the swamp/shore of the Carolinas. And DC *is* a swamp, as some1 pointed out. Of course, it also depends from where they come! (Kansas?)
