Good news for heat lovers: Consistent upper 80s and humidity are in the long term forecast as we transition to August, but still no 90s.

Our average first 90 is June 14, and our average last is August 19. So, climatologically, we still have another 3 weeks to catch a better chance at 90 degree heat.
