But air-conditioning units can only cool a maximum of 30 degrees, Fahrenheit, and that's only if you want them running non-stop. When it's 115F outside--which it will be shortly--it can make for some toasty nights! (Ceiling fans are our friends!)

Yeah, low 70's F seems like a decent room temperature to me. I guess if the humidity were high it could still feel sticky.
Thankfully it's never 115F where I live! Summer daytime temperatures here are typically in the 80s or sometimes 90s (90's have gotten more common in recent years). Usually it cools down considerably overnight.
