Default Summertime?

In the past year we have had unusual weather. For example, last summer we had day after day of 90*F temperatures. Then we had a long cold, snowy winter. Spring, brought a lot of days of cold rain. Summer, this year, we've only had two days of 90*F temperatures. Normally July, August, and September are very warm, humid months--not this year!

In fact I have had to bring in from my uncovered deck all of my plants into the screened in porch where it is about 10*F warmer, overnight. Neofinetia are intermediate to cold rated orchids. But when the temps go below 50*F, I'm concerned that such cold temps during the growth cycle of summer would set them back.

Any opinions or observations are welcome!
