Do we live in the same city? The last few weeks has had multiple days over 90 degrees, with a very minor respite when it rains. We haven't even hit August yet (which is typically way hotter than July).
Also FWIW, the entire New England area may be prone to forest fires as bad as the west coast if the region continues to dry out. There is no management of brush in Maine or Vermont or New Hampshire (or even Canada for that matter).
You also can't exactly predict the effects of climate change on regions. I don't think anyone ever thought Washington or Oregon state would experience 24+ hour 100 degree heats during the summer, but they did and will likely experience it again in the future.
There definitely were warm days, but I think overall it was a cold summer, coldest I personally experienced. I've been in Boston since 2018. E.g. night were quite windy and cold, also it rained quite a bit. It was a chilly, windy, wet summer, which is something I enjoyed. It was extremely easy to cool my house down, only worked the AC at the worst of the heat at Eco mode.
