Or as we call it in the Southern U.S., "Summer Lite," where the daily high temps are finally at or below 90°F a good bit of the time. We keep getting teasers of autumn, but it'll be a week or two depending on where you live. The heat index in Houston looks to be 105°F today, so autumn is still a little ways off. Ouch.
