Honestly, I'm surprised the city hasn't started a "Survive the Summer" competition. The prize? A lifetime supply of popsicles and a personal air conditioner.
How Hot is Too Hot?

So, how many days exactly? Well, that number keeps climbing faster than a kid on a sugar rush. It's like a never-ending game of "beat the heat." And the winners? The cockroaches. Those little critters are thriving.
