I got up at 5 am today but still no 27 C. Can you let me know what that feels like? Even with the AC on high I can't get the house that cold. My office is warmer than that, too.

Is your "heat index", your version of our "humidex"- when the humidity is taken into account right?

Basically-higher dewpoint higher humidity-if close to temp.
Trust me,you don't want to experience 99F and 81F dewpoint!

24c = 75.2f
I think 27c was our low last night.
The only difference between 70f dewpoint and 80f is
the fish can come out of the water! 😯

Yes Eric, they love it! Even the Moth orchid I have outside is growing well. I managed to revive an olive tree that was a stick since may too. On the solstice, the sun is up around 530 EST, and sets around 10 45PM. ITs about 15 minutes shorter now ( just noticeable). The tropicals just love it.
Jim - Too good of a point about the fish lol,

Ugh! I'm just back from Mexico where the temps were ~25C during the day and 17C at night. This humidity is terrible!
We might break the record tomorrow with a high of 37C (99f) here in the city. I hope that the forecast is wrong!
Edit: My sticker says 35C (95f) right now, YUCK!

Surprising how far north this heat extends, We've had what seems like weeks of 100+ temps
