The only positive factor we have encountered on our Journey thus far is that the temperature has, at least, moderated; growing somewhat warmer.

Rock replaced the mud of the tunnel; the air grew slowly lighter, cleaner; the temperature moderated.

Crowds on the streets grew more numerous as the temperatures moderated.

In July, temperatures moderated and energy use fell, but electricity prices still spiked up to the highest ever seen for that month.

By then temperatures have moderated a bit.

The rains have stopped and the temperatures have moderated.

The temperature had moderated from last night's bitter mid-teens, but it was still chilly.

Though there was sufficient snow cover, temperatures moderated early in the year and there were high winds.

By the beginning of October, the temperature had so far moderated that it could scarcely be said to be intolerable.

Try to go in spring or fall, when temperatures moderate from the upper 80's of July and the waves of tourists have gone home.
