I lived in Orlando two years, and yes, July is ridiculously hot for anyone accustomed to northern summers. But no hotter than June or August; not much hotter than May. Rains will cool most afternoons or evenings. But in Florida, we lived much of the time out of doors despite the heat, and our car did not have air conditioning (nor did my grandfather's Central Florida house for the first 20 years after he retired there). I rode my bicycle too and from work, even in summer.
That was a "coming from Michigan" experience. Living now on the Great Plains for the 33 of the past 35 years, Florida does not seem so ridiculously hot. Now we sometimes see highs over 100 F for two to two and a half months, and often no rain for that length of time. We still go camping, sit outside in the shade and sweat.
