States like Texas, Arizona, Nevada and Florida are known for extreme heat. In some cities, temperatures can go above 100\u2109 (38\u2103).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Humidity can also make the weather feel even hotter, particularly in southern and eastern states. Places like Florida, Louisiana and New York often experience humid summers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meanwhile, some areas such as parts of California, Washington and Colorado may have cooler or drier summers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/www.smileswallet.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2026\/05\/download-2-1024x538.jpg\" alt=\"Summer in Southern California\" class=\"wp-image-2377\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.smileswallet.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2026\/05\/download-2-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.smileswallet.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2026\/05\/download-2-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.smileswallet.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2026\/05\/download-2-768x403.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.smileswallet.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2026\/05\/download-2.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Photo credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.latimes.com\/california\/story\/2023-06-21\/southern-california-weather-june-gloom-summer-sun\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">LA Times<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:5px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Air conditioning is common<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unlike in some countries, air conditioning is very common in the U.S. Homes, offices, malls, restaurants and public transportation often use strong air conditioning during summer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This means you may need to carry a light jacket or sweater indoors even when it is very hot outside.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, using air conditioning regularly can increase your electricity bill. Many families try to save energy by:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Using fans<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Closing curtains during the day<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Adjusting the thermostat<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Avoiding heavy appliance use during peak hours<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:5px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Summer is travel season<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Summer is one of the busiest travel seasons in America. Many families take vacations while schools are on break. Airports, tourist attractions and highways can become crowded, especially during holidays like:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Independence day<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Memorial day<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Labor day<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because of higher demand, flights and hotels may become more expensive during summer.
