The forecast is for several hot days in a row, and yesterday the National Weather Service issued a "heat advisory" for today (11 a.m.-8 p.m.). So when I woke before 7, I had a cup of tea and then went for a walk, on the street that the trolley runs on so I could walk back. This is a little bit of exploring my new neighborhood, and I went as far as the Chestnut Hill Reservation, went into the park, and looked at the reservoir for a bit.
When the weather app on my phone said 80° (F), I got up, walked back to Commonwealth Avenue, and took the green line home (two stops, this wasn't a very long walk).
I am pleased with myself for thinking of this yesterday, and leaving suitable clothing where I could grab it without waking anyone. Also, I remembered to take a bottle of water with me. That would have been a good idea in any case, but I thought of it because the forecast was for lower humidity than I expect to go with these temperatures.
Tomorrow I have to be in Cambridge at 3:45 for a mammogram, but may try another morning walk anyhow.
ETA: the heat advisory is now through 8 p.m. tomorrow, but the hour-by-hour forecast for the morning is similar to what we had today.
