> May or June to August Well, that's fairly short by U.S. standards, at least when counting 20+ C weather, which in many states is nearly 6 months of the year, with summer heat lasting well through September in many places. Even places south of Norway, like Netherlands, still considered pretty far north for many in the world, have relatively 'short' summers as well.
