We've come close.
I get up at 4am so I can enjoy time outdoors before it becomes uncomfortable. With almost no humidity (usually < 20%, sometimes <10% this time of the year) it's nice until around 10am. I don't mind it at all even later in the day for safe periods of time. Breezes are still refreshing.
That all changes around mid-July when the monsoons roll in driving the humidity up and the temperatures down. Evaporative coolers become useless. No fun getting caught in a dust storm on a bike. By then, the giant heat sink called The Valley of the Sun is saturated. Now you have temperatures averaging 105F with humidity and everything around you radiating heat. Lows are usually in the 90s. Wind is hot, actually makes things worse by pulling more moisture out of your body. August through early October is my least favorite time of the year. Get a lot accomplished indoors (like winter for most folks) and enjoy the NFL (Go Eagles!).
I've had many tube components (both home and pro) over the years. The only time I really noticed a problem was with Joule Electra monos. Can't imagine having any problem with a ST-70.
