What July feels like
The opera season opens and the real ritual is the tailgate: people set up tables in the parking lot beforehand with proper linen, then sit in a theater open to the night air. Bring a blanket, because the storms cool things down fast and the second act is always the cold one. Spanish Market fills the Plaza late in the month.
Expect about 5 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around. about 16 afternoons top 90°.
