conv: It's hotter in the summer in Massachusetts than I thought it would be. I'm spending my first summer in Massachusetts. It's a lot hotter than I expected it to be. Is it really? How hot is it there? The hottest it got was 99 degrees. It has been in the mid 80s mostly_comma_ but I was expecting cooler weather in New England. That is hot_comma_ but it is a bit hotter where I live here I don't like it at all_comma_ but I can put up with it until fall.
