Temperature still high at night?

Question

Is it typical for the temperature to remain as high as it's been during the evenings?  When I was younger I seem to recall that it would drop down into the 80's in the evening during the summer, not stay at 95 to 100 degrees all night.

It does remain hotter at night than it used to because of all the asphalt and concrete that retains the heat of the day.  You used to be able to go out after 8 or 9 in the evening and have it drop down to bearable temperatures, now it's just hot all through the summer.

it does drop some in the evening but it still feels like it is 100 degrees. Any time the sun goes down the temperature drops a little. It does stay in the 80's-90's all night though.

I arrived here in April and have been watching the temps.  Between about 5 and 7 in the morning it drops down to around 80 degrees and starts climbing agan around 8 or 9.  I hear it has become the norm in the last 15 years or so given all the building that is going on.

Expect the high 80's to low 90's during this close to Monsoon season time. The higher dew points and humidity plus occasional cloud cover don't normally allow our evening temperatures to drop to the usual lower 80's!

I am really not trying to be funny so please take my advice seriously......if you want to get pregnant then have sex with your partner every day for one month because there is only one day out of the month you can get pregnant so if you make love everyday you will conceive
