Yes, most of the time. Our summer temps are almost always above 110
degrees F, often running as high as 115 and occasionally as high as 118.
If we didn't run the air-conditioning, it could/would affect many things
in the house, not just the butter. :-) Our 5 housecats and 1 puppy would
probably have heatstroke.

Here it is past the middle of November and we're still having temps in the
low 90s. All the penalty of living in the desert. :-)
