Is it guaranteed? No. Weather is a chaotic, dramatic little monster. A cold front could swoop in like a hero at the last second. But the odds? They’re leaning toward “yes, you will regret leaving your ice cream out.”
Here’s the thing: the models are showing a trend. A trend toward toasty. A trend toward “why did I wear jeans today.” It’s not a certainty, but it’s a strong suggestion.

How Hot Are We Talking?
Not “instant fried egg on the sidewalk” hot. More like “your glasses fog up when you walk outside” hot. We’re talking highs that make you reconsider your life choices in that normal, July way.
Humidity is the real villain here. It’s that sneaky partner that turns 95°F into a sauna. You step outside, take one breath, and it feels like you’re drinking the air. Yum.
So expect overnight lows that don’t actually feel low. It will be “sleep with a frozen water bottle” weather. You know the drill.
