hotsummer

hotsummer is a term used in English-language discourse to describe a season or period characterized by exceptionally high temperatures. The word is informal and not a formal meteorological category; it typically conveys sustained warmth, often with high average temperatures and heat waves. The form is sometimes written as two words, hyphenated, or closed as hotsummer in branding or headlines.

In meteorology, terms such as heatwave or extreme heat are used for precise events. “Hot summer” is often a descriptive label for a season when daytime highs and nighttime temperatures exceed historical norms. A hot summer may be associated with drought, high energy demand, and health risks from heat exposure; in climate-change discussions it can appear as part of broader notes on increasing frequency and intensity of hot summers in many regions.

Usage and examples of the term vary. Media outlets may refer to a hotsummer when a sequence of unusually hot days spans an extended period; social media users may tag posts about heat or related conditions. In marketing, the term may appear in slogans or product naming to evoke warmth, outdoor activity, or seasonal appeal.
