In August I’m visiting Tucson Arizona and it will be 97 degrees should I wear shorts?

Yes, you should if you're going to be out.

No your summer wools in basic white is best. & a screen wire type hat. Wide brim.

If that's what you wear in hot weather. Not everyone likes shorts or wears shorts. You can wear pants, capris, skirts, whatever. Wear what you're comfortable wearing for the weather. And that's a LONG way out, so maybe wait until you get a little closer to see what the actual temperatures are going to be.

No! Do you want 3rd degree sunburn? Wear something that's going to protect you from the sun. One day and that bright sun on unprotected skin is going to totally ruin your trip you'll be so sunburned you won't be able to enjoy your trip

that wouldnt be a bad idea

So are you using a Delorean with a flux capacitor to go back in time two months? Or are you just a really anal retentive packer who plans out his wardrobe 10 months in advance?  Also, the only way it's ever only 97 degrees in Tuscon in August is if it's nighttime.

You wish it will be 97. It’s going to be way hotter than 97.

Just go naked. There’s the free the nipple movement so why not free the beaver or cock movement.

No, it's routine for people to just run around naked there. No one notices.
