It's hot here.
Not any hotter than many places often get to, but really effing hot for this region.
And our civilization crumbles very quickly when this happens for more than one day around here.
Sort of like when it gets frozen for more than a day and our transportation becomes terrible.
This is an amazing region to live in, but we only really function well in a 40 degree window of 38F to 78F and that really is a 25 degree window of 43F to 68F.
When it goes out of range, we cannot deal.
The cold is bad here because everything is a slope and a hill and graded so a little ice is really bad.
The heat here is bad because we do not have fans and air conditioners, and by the time we think to get them we just plan for it for the next time and don't actually get those things before the next summer or two down then road when it happens again.
Temperate climates rock, changes to that making these things happen more often suck.
