I call bull on that weather.com chart for July 2012. It shows average high temps in the mid-eighties. I worked outdoors in the DFW area nearly every day this last summer, and I don't think we saw a single day that wasn't 100+ in July.
They must have been taking their high temp readings before 9:00AM every day.
