I'm in the Greater Phoenix Valley in Arizona and right now at a little after 7AM, the thermostat reads 71β out which is cooler than it is inside the house at 74β. We have a high of 99β and a low of 67β which is absolutely perfect and there isn't a cloud in the sky. My phone says 75β / feels like 77β and the humidity is around 45% which is comfortable and not too sticky for this environment which is normally incredibly dry and requires most people to use some form of moisturizer or chap stick.
Around September 21st, our monsoon season draws to a close and it starts cooling down and getting less humid which makes it really nice to get out and spend time outside. Despite it being a desert, it actually DOES rain here and because the ground is much harder than other biomes (due to what's called "Caliche" (/kΙΛliΛtΚiΛ/) type soil), we tend to get flash floods that then pool into the Agua Fria, Rio Salado and other local river systems and those become really lush and fun places to take the dogs to to swim.
I play a lot of phone games and take a lot of pictures and videos and this becomes more difficult during the Phoenix Summers when my phone becomes more prone to overheating so around this time of year is when I and most other phone gamers become more active in Phoenix.
