Haha, I think everyone tries to keep reality in here a bit. When it looks hot, it looks hot. When it looks nice, it looks nice. I don't spend a lot of time looking at the day 7-10 stuff in the summer at all.
My weather is also quite a bit different from that down in CT, so its hard to compare sometimes. Lots of times Kev is humid with dews in the 60s while we are 75/53 up here. The highest average maximum at MVL is 82F I believe in mid-summer. We do get a lot of highs in the 70s during the summer so its not like its a cool pattern...just very enjoyable weather for doing outside recreation.
Yesterday is a prime example... lots of warm readings of 90F at BDL, 88F at CON, and the high up here was 78F.
Of course our opinions will be different when we get those types of days.
