    My 70 year old dad is also in denial. Keeps saying it’s summer and always hot, but complaining about it lasting for 3-4 weeks this far and we’re only mid-July. Then said a week long below average streak would would help because that’s how you get average temps.

      They live in NJ and I moved to Miami back in October, it’s been practically the same temperature in both places (for those not in the US, Miami is subtropical, New Jersey is 1300 miles north and has a coastal climate) for about the past month. The only difference is that it’s about 10-20% more humid down here in Florida. The “Real Feel” is always within a few degrees though. For a few days here and there it’s been hotter in NJ.
