> I thought you would mention that it can be hot in CT in Jan-Feb, in the 30-40C range. But it's a dry heat

Thought you were talking about Perth, Australia there for a sec!

The running joke is 'it's a dry heat' when referring to the week long runs of 40+ degrees



"But it's a dry heat" is an old saw:

I've been in Cape Town on 40+ Degrees C days.

It is dry there in summer. Parent comment about the mountain catching fire is "joking but also true(ish)".

There's sea on 3 sides of Cape Town but somehow, the summer heat is bone dry. I suppose it would be worse if it was damp.
