People in the NorthEast are such whimps. I wouldn’t even describe the weather as hot, unless it was OVER 100.
Not sure where you're from, but to be fair, we do get some pretty nasty winters in the Northeast. In Rochester, NY, we've gotten snow storms as early as October and a few years back, we got snow on Mothers Day. As a result, I make it a point to not complain when we get hot weather.
