Yep. It is hot now.
I remember every year that it takes all summer to get used to the heat. June feels unbearable hot, but by late August (when it is actually hotter) we are accustomed to it.
I grew up without a/c.
We would wet our hair, put cold compresses on . . .

This is how we almost managed. (Some nights we barely slept.)

Place or tie an icepack behind your head.
Wet all your hair, or just all along the hairline in a pinch. The evaporation of the water will cool your head (though it may make your hair a bit frizzy if it's curly!).

Dry heat. Ack!! Yuck.
Even Long Island NY felt dry to me after living in the South.
And when I was in San Diego and Nevada for visits, I was miserable.
Dry heat feels worse to me. I don't know why that is.
